God is a Lichen

Feel it grow along you
O beast of bark and leaf
Feel yourself be coated
Cloaked and draped 
Creeping, creeping
Creeping divine

Feel it grow along you
O you bastion of grit and stone
Feel it pick at your details 
Grasping your sacred secrets
Knowing, knowing
Knowing divine

Feel it grow along you
O great tower of brick and flesh
Feel it share your grandeur
Covering your walls
Growing, growing
Growing divine
