The speaker recalls having two gods as a child - the one kept in her family's bedroom closet that her parents prayed to each evening, and the Christian god taught about at school. She felt like a ghost at school as the only non-Christian student, watching her classmates pray but not fully understanding or participating in their prayers. At home, she recited Hindu prayers taught by her parents but sometimes mixed them up with Christian prayers, unsure of the proper responses and traditions of either religion.
