Multiple deities, one for all reasons.
A prophet revered like a god.
A spiritual leader yearns
to banish all senses —
do away with suffering.
A personal god dies to restore life.
Unnamed beings create features
of the landscape and the seas.
Nature spirits — rocks, fishes, birds
talk in the Dreamtime and
the song line moves like
underground veins
and creeps to the surface.
Many in one, one in many
Paradox stands in tension
beyond the confines
of a ‘black’ or ‘white’ realm.
Faith oozes from within;
certainty defies faith;
religion binds.
The true genderless god
remains nameless.
‘I AM who AM’
