hide and seek

I walked by God's house and saw him peeking from behind a drawn curtain.

sad that humans close the curtain to God, but still he peeks out. We can't hide from him, no matter how many curtains we draw. Powerful monoku! Nicely done. Enjoy your day, Sara

He has no need to hide, and there's nothing we can hide from Him.

Examine this statement in under 500 words... Some thoughts: curtain for cremation - thanks for coming, drawn curtain - something to do with a veil, to be seen is to want to be seen - it is God after all, better than the grim reaper or the same? Unsure, if on a walk the ability to linger or walk past - philosophical exploration of this point required, Micky Flanagan (UK) comedians sketch about "maintain the peek" if ever caught - consider if relevant, privilege of moment - join priesthood.
