Discussions With a Deity

Discussions with a deity 

Let’s talk about G-d
Let’s talk about your connection with G-d
Let’s talk about Him/It and
How you converge here in
This public forum 
In this place of G-dlyness 
Let’s walk in to the holy of holies 
And proclaim our worth 
And right
Together
Here, holding hands

Let’s talk about kosher
Let’s talk about candles 
Let’s talk about when you 
Decided you would/wouldn’t
Eat with G-d’s thanks on your food
Prepare the table
Smell the spices
How the wandering and the diaspora 
Grabbed your innate senses
And rebelled 

Let’s catagorise prayer, practice 
And life and judge ourselves 
And each other as we walk precariously 
On the path of the land
