Reflections After The Hurricane

Forces of nature

beg the human to question

what powers we hold

within the universe of god's hands

:

Disasters force humans

to demand and question

"Where was god when I needed them?"

:

In miserable desperation

they look for answers in all the places

besides within and around them

:

Tears welling up in her throat

Words croaking from her lips

"It was a disturbance in the force."

"God looked away for a second

and something terrible happened."

:

That's where she was wrong

because that something terrible

was also god

:

The disturbance in the force

and the force itself

:

God is the calm

God is the storm

:

God is everything

and nothing

all in one

:

God is the light

God is the dark

:

The absence

and presence

of every moment in time

and before time began

:

God is

where we come from

and where we go

:

It's who we are

and who we aren't

:

It's what makes us similar

and sets us apart

:

God is the wrath

as much as the healing

:

God is simply the vibration

flowing through all things

in existence
