A Reporters Saturday Headline Review (Free verse) by Don-Quixote
I read in the New York Times that god was secretly living on earth driving a red hot rod in east L.A. I read that he was moonlighting as a gay prostitute, paid three hundred green backs for oral attention. And that anal penetration was free for the cops. (nightstick fetish, a holy queer secret.) My mouth gaped as my eyes digested the front cover of this newspaper: Our noble father servicing a Beverly hill doctor. The photo illustrated him cupping the mans wrinkly sack and requesting him to cough. (Only a Jew would be sexually involved in his day job...) Mumbles escaped with a sigh as I pondered what the world was coming to. Switching to the west coast, gazing at the San Francisco Post, I was amused to be informed that Satan was vacationing disguised as a Puerto Rican In Compton. Photos showed him playing dominos with a nabisco oreo mutt on the front porch of his tiny low income housing, the grass parched painted a sickly yellow brown. The article describing his proclamation that Jesus was the lords pimp. (The payback for satisfying gods sadistic sexual appetites) Another sigh, originating from my rear end radiated into the air of my apartment as I mumbled about yellow journalism replacing realism. I then had a sudden disturbing midmorning vision: Sunday Headlines -- The Pope Gets Head! Front page illustrations showing a cartoon drawing of the church official receiving a lollipop service from god dressed as a choir boy. Holy Moses.. a politicians long awaited relief.

I would say "Section 8 housing" rather than "low income". If the devil can't fool the Housing Authority, who could?

Not sure why god is masquerading as a prostitute.
I guess the final line is about how politicians are glad they are off the front page, or even glad that the virtues they have to live up to are now less.

Anyway like the language employed, and the aggression/irreverence

So what you're telling me is that you think you do not have a Divinity complex?

ah.. ok, since we are on that one, and i childishly snapped over this subject, i guess we should discuss it.

First, what exactly do you mean when you say i have a divinity complex? I want to be sure i understand that repeated statement before we delve into this.

Very good, now you're thinking. You will find that Manly P. Hall wrote an essay on the subject you might find very interesting. Then we may delve all that you wish. But my friend, rest in knowing you do have one, along with one of your parents, as do I.

perhaps you would like to point me to a url of that essay.. or should i do my hacker majic and delve right into it..?

And, about one of my parents having a divinity complex.. i dont agree there.. and i wonder where you got this idea.. but im sure you will atleast clue me in on this sooner or later, or ill comprehend perhaps when i find this essay.

If you google you will find it... If not it gets no freer than the public library

sorry dq, this leaves me flat. maybe i'm in a mood this morning, but it's coming across as imitative and banal. the bar just got heavier.

banal i can understand somewhat.. imitative though? of who?...
