If God was a woman

If God were a Woman But, He ain’t The Bible tells me so He wouldn’t abandon His children Like a deadbeat Dad Create stars to foster kin Use child labor to make hijabs Covering the universe in shame He just inseminates galaxies Leaving diapers for others Sending humanity to boarding school Teaching survival of the fittest Like his beloved Son crucified Who failed His test yet won While mother Mary wept Would she make a better God? Knowing the pain of pregnancy Requires three, but God is One It must be so lonely to be One A child can never be a Father A woman with child is never alone Only God as He is is solely One Even if the Holy Spirit stirs Even if Christ climbs on the throne Professing Trinity as One Perhaps He has to be taught family Perhaps then infanticide would end If He was with child on the cross If He was a woman reborn I wouldn’t mind Falling into his bosom But, your breast is hard I wish you were my girl But then, I would desire you Perhaps that’s the point To love without desire As You birth stars And black holes Cruel in design Like a man
