"My God Is." "No My God Is!"

People say they believe

People say they have faith

Then they go and preach hate.

 

“My God is the God”

“No My God Is”

“I think my God is his.”

 

People tell me are you awake?

People, you are allowed mistakes.

Just please stop all the hate!

 

“My God is white”

“My God is black”

“I still think my God is his”

 

People make up your mind.

People unlike you, God was kind.

Please put down your stupid signs!!!

 

“My God is Republican."

“My God is Democrat."

“I think my God is a Repubocrat.”

 

People, please put down your bats!

People, you’re better than that!

Don’t even know who you’re yelling at!

 

“My God hates you!”

“Well, My God hates you too!”

“My God hates me.”

 

People just open your eyes to see.

People please just let it all be.

Just allow yourself to be free.

 

“My God will kill you!”

“My God will kill you too!”

“My God wants me to commit suicide.”

 

People, you’re all dense.

People, you all make me tense.

None of you make a bit of damn sense!

 

“My God is Jewish”

“My God is American”

“My God could be Hungarian.”

 

People you all praise the same thing.

People, you should all be ashamed.

You, yourselves are too blame.

 

Because you see, God is not white. God is not black. God is none of that.

 

God is your heart and soul.

God is what makes you whole.

God is what allows you to grow.

 

People, please put down your guns.

People just let it all be done.

It’ll be nice to see people, not on the run.

 

God wants you to love not hate.

God wants you to accept and appreciate.

God wants you to fulfill your fate.

 

So stop debating which God you’re praising.

So stop all of the rating and the hazing.

Just be thankful that God thinks you’re worth saving.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Author's Note

This is in no way one of my better poems but I wrote it because of all of the protests and hate, over the health care reform bill and well the fact that most people are just ignorant when it comes to religion and politics.

This piece speaks for many people. It is true that people are fighting over the health care reform, and maybe if they all grew up and noticed what was actually going. Then the argument would be over.Oh, I almost forgot Dread Solomon has a point, what does 'My God is his? And people are to blame'

[Art]

Nice work...the entire world is walking within a confused state of mind, it seems variety of religious thought or political means of contamination has societies everywhere playing that hate game...I like how you state God is God and there is a simple truth with that, one only has to remove themselves to understand....

God is LOVE...

enjoyed this ...

[Dread Solomon]

The last line is good!!

What do you mean by 'My God is his'? And 'people are too blame'?

This is a really excellent piece!! People fight over almost anything, that at times I wonder, why can't they leave each other alone? And they call me crazy...
