Aloysius Nkemalem Poet Carpe Diem

God and Gods

There is a bright Border line between God and gods. 
God is always above and a lone, his throne is a paradise, 
Whereas, gods are many and below and are created by men on earths. 
Oh what a difference to know.
God cannot be conjured by human sacrifices, 
contrary to gods which favor men according to huge sacrifices; these are carved images, and nothing but phantoms. 
They can’t protect themselves but pretends, 
they can’t protect their servants when God speaks but stoop. 
Their servants carry them about when there is danger; 
God’s omniscience cares for his servants at all times and in all conditions, as true servant of him moves with him. God is good to know and believes.

Ayesha Karim March 13, 2013 at 8:26 AM Your poem could've used a bit of editing but I loved your poem. God and gods: God is the highest power There is 'The Most High' and gods lowercase are mortal, manmade and try to use methods like conjuring and Witchcraft that is all human-made or man-made so-called dark arts. Men seem to want to be like God but man will never be God.
