allah and jesus go to hell

preface
- for those who read
- and look
- and see
- and those who act

jesus, the son of god, was sent to iraq
allah, the one god, went to america
i, a californicator, was asked to write it down

who would refuse such a request
la is not so far away and
there are always movie rights

jesus dies before the end and it is not pretty
so many may wish to read
or have interpreted for them
other stories
by other people
with various intent

oh readers
do you not see this intent

and chosen by a council

oh readers
do you not see this intent

chosen by an Emperor

oh readers
do you not see this intent

and translated from un original languages

oh those who read poetry
translated and other wise
do you see this difficulty

than read the truth in their hearts
and on the backs of their eyelids
than hear this tale told as truthfully as possible

but then
ive heard that
before
by those
with various
intents

allah
has a book ghostwritten
in la
but others may choose more direct writings
or less
for who would forget
or remember
or mention
the satanic verses

interpreted for them
by men who do not smile
at least anywhere where i have seen
and though a smile is often a lie in la

how human is man in la
or otherwise

and how
anthropomorphic
is allah
regardless
of our books

oh readers

i fear all these interpreters
more than i fear my own interpretation
and i know
i am learing to interperate
my heart
and what i see
on the backs of my eyelids

but that is a different story
or perhaps
it is the same story
for all who look
and then see
and i ask you to look
for then this would be what this story
and all stories
are about
but only you
could know that
after seeing
and who looks
and who sees
in america
anymore
when the television
can tell it all
by looking
without seeing
so easily

and who speaks
who has looked and
who has seen
where fatwa
moves men
to act
without seeing

but lets start slowly
to look at this story
and perhaps we
together
will see what is true
