as if

'keep god in america'

the gas guzzling bumper car message stated

as if god was a captive or

as if god just played favorites

as if god inked our maps or

as if god made our might

as if god wore red white and blue robes

and patrolled our borders at night

to the highest almighty patriotic bidder

who thinks god is a commodity to own

or the holier than thou

that vote religion and profit from war

you should know that buying the universe

does not buy us a god as well

and using god as a guise to kill

is not knowing god at all
