Hide and Seek - Oct. 31, 2021

Gary Hunter

gaze

at every single face

you see


you’ve probably heard

that God masquerades

as all these characters

waitress bank teller homeless

husband mother friend son


using one eye

like an impotent spy

He watches life

from a billion perspectives


so well-disguised

it takes a lucky glance

to spot Him

before He shrinks

into the shadows


still I have this feeling

God gets a charge

playing hide and seek


and losing
