Poem: God of the Broken

God of the poor
God of the orphans
God of the powerless
God of the beaten down
God of those with tears in their eyes
God of the widows — of the divorced
God of the displaced
God of the homeless
God over the unemployed
God over those who weep and cry everyday

God over the broken
God over the hurting
God over those in pain
God over those who are shoved, kicked and punched
God over the imprisoned
God over the confused
God over the mentally ill
God over the desperate
God over the sick
God over the wailing
God over the dead

God over the sinister
The pranksters, the jokers, the greedy
God over them all.
Not a single place, or category
Is untouched by your love.
God over me
God over you.
God over the broken
God over the unconscious, and the self-conscious.

God over all.
