I don't need your god.
I don't need your eternal paternal god.
I don't need your re-assuringly protective,
good and evil perspective god.

Don't need no imported distorted,
inflated updated,
holy roller, save your soul
or anaesitisingly opiate god.

Don't need no 'all creatures that on earth do dwell',
'be good or you go to hell' god.
Don't need no Hare Krishna, Hare Krishna,
Hail Mary, Hail Mary god.
Got no yen for zen, Baghavad-Gita or gurus,
no Mormon, Methodist, Seventh Day Adventist gods,
no absolutes be on refute,
no referential, preferential, judaic messianic god.

No Bibles, no Mahayanas, instant dharma gods.
Don't need no spiritual suicide,
prefrontal lobotomising god.
Don't need no stoic sexless,
antiseptic god.
Don't need no neon crucifix,
no crusade, no Burka or Kabbala,
no camels or needles or papal decrees,
no mail-order ikons, Koran's or Mandala's,
no Mhen Baba's, no Imams or Ayatollahs.

No Scharia, no Opus Dei, no Dianetics,
no Terror or Beads,
no Devadasi,
no immortal invisible gods only wise.
Don't need no televised, circumcised,
incessant incandescent god.

I don't need your god.
I need human beings, the beasts of the field,
the earth and the stars.
I need some kind of love.
I need you.

(Psalm, Anne Clark version)
