God Is Not Religion

Rating: 4.0


God is not Christian,
he would've slain every Muslim.
God is not a Muslim,
christians would've long been gone.
He isn't an Imam in a pillard building
furnished with mats - facing east ward;
Nor a relate in an arranged blocks
furnished with pews - reciting a creed.
Never had he held high the banner
of a crescent-moon with a lone-star;
Nor will ever hold high the banner
of a carved plus - known as cross.
He abide in love-constructed hearts,
furnished with pearls of peace.
And at the sight of dawn you know...
love is not god - God is love.
