What God Is.

 

Abundant goodness.
and being ok just as you are
and having the stuff you really need
despite being a bit of a screw-up
and being just as worthy
as the ones you look up to
and just as unworthy
as the ones you look down on
because we’re all just
the same random dust
connected by the same science-y forces
but because we’re human
and developed this weird consciousness thing
we need to put
an emotional tag on it
 in order to understand it
(even if you think you’re more logical that that)
so we call it “love”
but that still doesn’t stop us
from messing it up
because we can’t NOT make it about us
and our inherited wounds
so we put it in boxes
with rules about
us and them
and we forget that
abundant goodness is
by definition
for everyone

So let’s forget the emotion
and the wounds
and look at how
the birds always have enough berries
(if they don’t, they die and become fertilizer, ok?)
and when they eat the berries
they poop enough seeds
to plant more bushes
and the bushes give them and their bird-kids
more berries
 and THAT is
abundant goodness
and THAT explains god

and it doesn’t care if you believe in it or not
it’s still gonna give you the freakin’ berries
