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
