Ballot and Bullet Boxes

When I read scripture,
pass by a temple,
synagogue or church,
a public meeting space,
a sacred nightly pub place,

Do I look first for what God hates,
or why and how and when and where S/He loves?

Do I look for reasons 
to explode more profitable secular bullets
or focus in on seasons
regathering His/Her sacred synergetic ballast,
resilient resident ballots cast 
for EarthTribe's long-term happier healthier wealth?
