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
