The Fireman and His Search For God


THE FIREMAN AND HIS SEARCH FOR GOD


Sometimes
the Fireman is afraid of living.
He used to pray to a Big Daddy God
but he's lost his faith

in anthropomorphism.
He believes that God is Fire.
He believes that God is Everywhere:
candles, sunlight, nerve cells.

Here's his problem:
if God is Everywhere,
then there's no place to go
to find Him.
