GOD AND MAN
Tonight, when the sun retires
And you're left alone with thought
I want you to ponder
Why does God, who made man in His image
Choose to remain a shadow
While man
The one He crowned with glory,
Decides who eats, who drinks, who dies?
Sometimes I wonder
Is God afraid of what He made?
Has man found a way
To hold Him hostage with his cruelty?
Maybe God is just another name
For power that watches and waits
Maybe He, too
Takes comfort in silence
Even in war
Even in pain.
