SUPREME BEING/ by, Dee Allen

SUPREME BEING
_______________

The Supreme Being is

Holy
Wise
Pure
Loving
Gentle
Giving
All-knowing
Omnipotent
All-seeing
Omnipresent
Most times He
Sometimes She
Lord
Father
King
Redeemer
Merciful
Creator
Vengeful
Destroyer
Sadistic
Incomprehensible to mortals
Higher than us
Name plastered on roadside billboards
In the South & the Midwest
[ Along with Jesus ]
Muse for church sermons & statesman’s speeches
Backbone for governmental decisions & laws
Impetus for terrorist acts
Excuse for needless wars
Convenient disguise for personal
Unscrupulous agendas—–

The Supreme Being is
All of these to all people.
Then again,
It would be

Downright stupid

Bestowing
A name
A title
A sex
A consciousness
A personality
A moral edge
Onto
An unproven
Shadow of an old idea.
