I have been having discussions (arguments for sure, cool, calm and collected, but good quality arguments without a doubt) with a friend about her belief in the Christian notion of god, and my belief in fence posts, and the unknown.
Here is a little poem inspired by such talks.
I believe in god during a hot shower, and right when I crawl into bed - the covers all warm and cozy.
I believe god lives in my teacup. god must ride a bike to school, and love smooth parking lots (god's parking lot probably has a lot more trees (I wonder if god has to peddle?)). I believe god must live in chocolate. If I were in a band I would want god to play the bass. I would not want god to sing lead vocals, god probably gets enough chicks as it is. I bet god loves comfortable socks just like me. Do you think god gets bored answering prayers all day? If I were god I would go on vacation every once in a while, to a really far away place in the universe. I would also want to make some friends, and just hang out. I would watch TV sometimes, and probably drink soda, and maybe even smoke a cigarette or two. If I were god I would probably love everything that I love now, but I would fly around sometimes when nobody was looking, because I would not want to have people asking me for winning lottery tickets all the time.
My name is Thomas Stollar. This is my last semester of graduate school at WVU. My thesis deals with introspection, and gaining a better understanding of how everyday experiences shape human character. The project is process oriented with the intention of documenting my most thought provoking experience for each day of January 2012. Each experience will be symbolically decorated onto forms like these. In the end all of the forms will compose a metaphorical version of my personality.
