God as a guy

Helena Yonatan

Reinforced,
I move.

Your god is a guy.

Free to move, and run,
and hide.

Each man has his guy.
Sanctuary in disguise.

Holy hidden place,
where only seekers are allowed.

Where personal conventions
are broken and remolded.

Traditional lack of balance.

Lousy conformity.
Sanctified disparity.

I thank myself for the entitlement.
No time to care, or hold onto.
ancient beliefs.

To be forgiving of myself?

Fuck your hiding place.

    Too long we have kept the image of God as a man. To me neither male of female but neutral is the way we all form halves of this great wonder of nature.

    Who is God
    I don't know
    What is God
    Is never truly told
    Male or Female
    Both in the same

    My thought stems toward both
    But I also like peanut butter on toast
    Ok, that last line was kind of strange
    Hope you have a wonderful day

      charmful ways of thought-provokers,
      inclusive yet elusive,
      way to end the day.
