New God

New God

A Poem by John Prophet

New god.
Replaces.
New focus.
Man made.
One god
after
the next.
Sentient
creation.
Evolving.
As with
humanity.
Simple
to complex.
Sophistication
morphing.
Transforming
along
the way.
Grappling
with existence,
sentience.
Limited.
Sapiens 
understanding,
capacity.
Bounded. 
Big reality
neophyte.
Spinning
narratives
of the
creator.
Thin weave.
Coping.
Man made
reliance.
Modernity.
New god
approaches.
Manufactured.
Hand held.
Head bowed.
Worshipping.
Worshipping
the next
iteration,
another
god.

I believe you're right my friend, Billy probably would've. Excellent thought provoking piece of poetry. I've come to expect no less from you. I enjoy your work because each read takes me on such a philosophical and existential journey that resonates with me after the last word is said. That is what art should always strive for. CLE

All things in this life evolve, including interpretations of deities. Somehow, I don't think Billy Graham would have liked this one.
