The Imam

The voice crooned religious froth over
the loud speaker like the voice of Leonard
Cohen but lost in nasal congestion. He
was an Imam. Anyone who listened to the
garbage that he had to say had to be a 
true believer of the most concrete variety.
P.T.Barnum, the first lay Imam, put it 
bluntly in his famous statement: "There's
a sucker born every minute." This was 
special froth: Leonard Cohen depression
froth. No wonder so many were stupidly
happy to blow themselves up. I now 
understand why UFOs were kept secret:
people can't handle the truth. And, what's
terribly worse is that they'll believe in
anything.
