God

Alan R

A religion that we chase

Yes it is within us

The craving of these nerves

It is within us

The sedation is almighty

Forgiving, compliant, quiet

All that calms the mind

Becomes God to human

A pill, an altar, a person we call home.

    Deeply philosophical it becomes practical in its implementation. A poem of reflection speaking to human nature and a broader definition of worship. There are reasons that men made their idols of gold. Well written and a fave
