Sacred Sermon

Man is said to be made in the image of God, More, He remains a God, Fallen in his own sins, Fallen, but well aware of his superiority Over everything else In a meaningless world! But then, If God, be like Man, If God, carries on his arm, A wife, It becomes a sin To think of God’s wife As a battered woman, As cheated upon, Treated as second choice, Meant to be kept on a shelf For when she would be needed! Pray, If God complements his crown with a wife, It becomes blasphemous To think That she is one who would have trust issues, Be suicidal, need therapy Cry all alone While pretending to be fine in the divine society! Why, God, as husband, Would listen to her, Respect her, laud her, Be proud of her And would trust her In any given circumstances! More, He would talk to her, Ask her to explain of her actions, Or of stuff which would seem Confusing to Him! He would treat her as His equal As He would know, for sure, That she remains His inner power, Without whom He would exist not! And if Man be made in the image of God, Or, if he remains one deep down at heart, Why is it that he behaves not as such Here, On Earth?
