Analysis of God Must be in There



They are all walking around looking at the art

At the giant face on the side of the Korean beauty store

The shadows resting in arches that trickle gold down the lofty old ceiling

The sweat rolling from one head to another

Their phones
Their faces
The stains on their teeth and the
Veins in their eyes

Looking, smelling, sensing, wanting, looking

For something to worship
