If God was to be elected, to govern for all of the world,
with truth a consideration, and will of free hearts unfurled,
by honesty, free of all threat, without fear at choosing to think -
confidence in sincerity, and freedom to search for the brink …

Many are born to fear diff’rence, so snuff out alternative views,
by snuffing life from opponents, yet pray on their mats or on pews.
If God was to be elected, with all of us given free choice,
would honesty become Satan, or would it deny us a voice?

If spirits lined up on the stage, to engage in the big debate,
would we all see what isn’t there, as we question each candidate.
Should we surrender choice at the vote, - submit to manipulation,
how might free spirit unity, return to the population?

If each gave a presentation, with no promise – only on fact,
and should God-elect fail mid-term, would we say “Go mate – you’re sacked?”
How long between each election – would all of the world disagree,
on who has high authority - and who would the scrutineer be?

If all Gods man has invented, were at the polls - put to the test,
cold hard physical evidence, might determine which God is best.
How much hypocrisy’s OK, so each allocation’s the same?
How many Gods in the ballot - how many would be just a name?

With thousands of Gods created - many thousands of years gone by,
no one’s invented the top god, who’s accepted by all – and Why?
If we have dreams in our minds’ eye, and pick out the bits to suit self,
Gods and Goddesses would differ, as Santa Claus does from an elf.

‘Literal interpretation’, opposing the ‘metaphor mob’,
reading “the word” man has written – should ‘Greens in between’ get the job?
If God gets to be elected, by each from one’s true point of view,
who can demand what you’ll believe? The whole belief thing’s up to you!
