God is a Woman

If God is a Woman

If God is a woman
would she be someone's
mother
sister
wife
daughter?

Would she nourish you with freshly baked chocolate cookies
or drop hints that the poor needed feeding?

If God is a woman
would she have drooping breast that fed a hoard of children
or a flat stomach and rounded breast that could open your desire for
her?

If God is a woman
woman, would she be in your image
or would she be the perfect image of what a man's idea of perfect
beauty and mother is?

If God is a woman
could we let go of our ideas of what a woman should be?
