The ivory gods,
And the ebony gods,
And the gods of diamond and jade,
Sit silently on their temple shelves
While the people
Are afraid.
Yet the ivory gods,
And the ebony gods,
And the gods of diamond-jade,
Are only silly puppet gods
That the people themselves
Have made.
all the idols manmade here summed up. Good brilliant poem,
Sit silently on their temple shelves very intricate.. truths about religion and worship and the mankind. tony
