The shaman looked for God in the church,
but He was not there.
The activist looked for God by meditating,
but He was not there.
The priest looked among the waves
and the mountain climber between pews,
nothing.
Blake said that 'one law for the lion and the ox
is oppression.' Blake's law looks nice on a coffee table.
It's fair game over cocktails.
God isn't invited to cocktail parties. He's not up for debate.
Not allowed to be relative or
renamed.
We'll let men name our laws, we don't lose sleep over oppression.
But don't let God be found somewhere we're not looking. We want
God on our terms.
The shaman surveys the land and searches his spirit.
The activist changes the world through good works.
The priest contemplates in prayer and
the climber summits truth.
Each knows what they need.
