Pantheon

Think on this  

Buddha, Muhammad, Olodumare, Jesus

Hell Maybe some incarnation of

Krishna   

 

All might be walking around the hood

the shanty towns

the slums

the back corners and trash piles

the ghettos

 

We wouldn’t know it but

We would

 

We know them

Those people

Those beings

 

Jesus might be an Asian woman

Muhammad might be a white man

Buddha might be an African child

Olodumare might be on facebook, twitter, and tumblr

Hell Krishna might be walking about with Ariginals at the mall

 

Maybe the god we are looking for

is already staring at us

 

Maybe the god we pray to

has already spoken

 

Maybe the divine force we seek to communion with

has already broken bread

 

Maybe

the problem is that we look for

(whatever it is that one seeks and has labeled godly)

from outside

when it has already been placed within

 

We are looking for God

When God has been inside

Waiting.
