What I Know of God is This

What I know of God is this:

That He has hands, for He touches me.

I can testify to nothing else;

Living among many unseen beings

Like the whippoorwill I'm constantly hearing

But was pointed out to me just once.

Last of our hopes when all hope's past

God, never let me call on Thee

Distracting myself from a last chance

Which goes just as quick as it comes;

And I have doubts of Your omnipotence.

All I ask is... Keep on existing

Keeping Your hands. Continue to touch me.

~ Milton Acorn
