In India everyone has a God
Some blue..some black
In the green of the fields
Stacked sometimes along with a haystack
In the cut out of a stone
Stashed in some rock..
In the entrance of a house
Yonder and beyond the MA, LLBs, MBBS & other such crap-
You'll find a neatly garlanded God in some cheap rack
There s a god for Science, a God for the Arts
A God for power, a God for submission
A God for dance, a God for calm
The common thread...
Some more groveling, some more asking
Never anything to do with 'Giving'
And beyond them is the..Dwarpal!
The man no one notices.

Nice!
Btw, in Tamil Nadu, many castes worship the dwarpal. He's known as Aiyyanar.
The thought has often crossed my mind too. Good to know some ppl pray to them:)
