God (Part 1)
When I saw the title "God" I assumed it was going to be a religious purpose but it just about getting pleasure for yourself. I think what the poem is doing in the story is that it shows how a person can be trusted or skilled because it said "I thought I knew you, knew you were the steady hand on the wheel." The poem just explains how the solider is being begged for forgiveness and that can related from a God like substance because when people believe in god and do something bad they would beg for forgiveness. It was straight forward poem because it talked about different events. This is a decent poem to read for adults. God as a character seems like a calm person but also is a sexual active person as well. I assumed that she was going to a peaceful person. I think it was a surprise.

I also was surprised when I read it, as I too thought it was going to be a religious story. I do think she does come off as a calm person at times, like when she wants to have a beer with them or dance with them, but for me she seems pretty fast. Don't you think so? She goes from dancing with them to trying to sleep with them in the span of a couple of minutes. I think I was surprised the most at the fact that she was a virgin, because the story seems like it set her up to be the opposite.
