God and Dog

Ecstatic I was to see Him

So when I found God wandering

I followed Him

He was so much like us

Except for plastic monkey face,

Cheap flashy yellow clothes

And a tattered tail

To add to that

He wielded a plastic mace

 

Elders passed Him by without giving a look

Girls looked at him in suspicion

Knocking at the every door

He smiled with eyes

For the fear of dropping prosthetic

Or the character

Household owners shooed Him away like a mangy dog

 

Though children watched at Him in awe

Wondering whether all of their bedtime stories

Could turn out to be true

Yet they pondered

How could the one

Who was called ‘Problem-Solver’

Has no solution for dogs chasing Him

 

Somehow saving Himself from chasing dogs

Adjusting his tattered tail

He sat next to me on the chair in the cafe

Removing His face prosthetic

He asked for a hot tea

And fried bread stuffed with potatoes

 

“Silly people!”

God mumbled staring at people flocking His temple

Rather than Him
