I cannot explain God
Why I would believe in anything so ancient and abstract
So shrouded and veiled
So often plastered on the T-shirts of fanatics

illogical
It is that God makes sense of everything else for me

like people see it, lapping against our ankles
Then further still, until we see water
painted blue across the earth
But let us not forget that
when we do, we die
