God's ghazal
I know a scared God
(I've seen a scared God)
A living-way-up-there God
Slumped outside our orbit of violence
We're wishing you just cared God
Upside while I'm downtown screaming:
YOU KNOW THIS ISN'T FAIR GOD
You're hiding up in nitrous heavens
A help-only-if-you-dare God
As our sins slip into the water supply
You've given us nothing to bathe in God
These California fires; these 2 a.m. stabbings
All this suffering isn't rare God
With nothing else to live up to
I guess we have to wear god.
