What If Darkness was Brighter Than Light

Jesus and Buddha and Manitou´s ex-squaws sat on the blue-green magnolia-tree shore

while Mohammed was doing his daily jogging and the holy ghost was looking for a door.

The nightshift-squad was on their way home to their families and the demons from down below

shared a mighty big spliff and the sharks of the riff were waiting for the beginning of the show.

"Do you have any clue what they´re fighting for in our names ?"asked Jesus and took a deep toke

"Not at all, bro", said Mohammed and stopped running for a minute,"I think this holy-war-thing´s nothing but a joke.

Well, maybe I said some things as I was angry and young but I never thought they´d take it for real !

But every excuse is a good one, you know when you´re living to rape kill and steal !"

What if the gods beyond hate ( trans-destination ) were simply victims of fate ( sense of creation )

where would we run to and where could we hide ?

What if our prayers would come true ( trans-destination ) and all our fantasies, too ( pain´s fascination )

and what if darkness was brighter than light ?

A raven dressed in black called the leader of the pack brought them a drink and screamed :"redemption for free !"

Buddha smiled from one ear to the other and said : "Excuse me, Sir, but I don´t agree.

Salvation you can´t get for nothing at all- you always have to give something in return !"

"Whatever !", said the raven, "I´m only a salesman and I work hard for the money I earn."

The last wales of destiny gave it one more try - spread their wings and flew up to the pink clouds somewhere high in the sky

while the birds were swimming in the sea and the reaper was yelling : "They ain´t ready yet to die !!!"

"Stay cool, man , relax - they won´t run away !", said Jesus and took his guitar

and he played dirty songs `till his fingers bled and a spaceship came travelling from far.

The flying saucer landed on the beach and a voice told them all : "Do not fear !

My name´s 42 , Allah, Jehova or God or simply Nature - do you have a beer ?

You all know parts of me - but you don´t know me whole and now I´m retired from this masquarade ball !

I left the world I created - Do you want the job, Reaper ? All you have to do is to call !"

What if the gods beyond hate……
