The Gods

The Gods

A Poem by E.J. Waling

The gods.
Created,
worshiped
from day
one.
Different
shapes,
different
kinds.
Always
evolving.
Gods,
envisioned
by those
created.
Aware
construct.
Sentient
concept.
Different
people,
different
gods.
Same
vision,
quest.
Creation!
How,
who,
why?
What
can’t
be
understood,
subscribed
to the
heavens.
Creation
contemplation,
purview
of the
created.

Indeed, men have created their gods in their own image. Perhaps it was, as you suggest, a way to explain the unexplainable. Unfortunately, the tribes started fighting over whose god was best. They continue to do so to this day, though the gods have changed somewhat.
