Choose your God wisely
Most children don't get to choose their own God
a God is appointed apparently by parents who were
anointed by their parents' ignorant arrogance
before them who swore them into infinite impotence
and intellectual boredom
It often remains until they are adults
then catapults itself into a new generation
of spiritual masturbation
No new thoughts are brought to the decaying equation
what's important is appearance perceived in society
and the passport and clearance conceived by your deity
so may it be and so may it mean
believing in bright fairy miracles
instead of interpreting them as parables
as they were meant to be seen
some break away from this religious machine
to find their own God, their own special meaning
to them I applaud

What might your 'God' be?
Are you simply a messenger for realization, or do you hold your own opinions as well?
Something I'm curious of~
My 'God' is in my passions, my writings and expressions~
This is the first time I've came across one who openly says these things, to try and either convince or awaken others to find their own and not others~

My God is simply what I choose to believe about the world around me without anyone telling me what I should believe. I mainly meant how organized religion often cripples individuals
from being passionate artists, such as your self.
