" God Is " -- thus pens poet (5)
I believe the answer is:
odist
'poet' is the definition.
(someone who writes odes)
'god is thus pens' is the wordplay.
'pens' says the answer is hidden in the clue (pen can mean to contain or cage).
'ODIST' is hidden within 'god is thus'.
(Another definition for odist that I've seen is " Poet".)
