Ultra high low tech transforming Jesus
Responded to prayers
By the faithful and the faithless alike
For there are no atheists in the storm
Kim Lee Park
The commonest of Koreans
Found himself overturned in a ditch
His old tractor pressing down upon him
Kim Lee Park suddenly found Jesus
And prayed to have his weight lifted
And so Jesus donned his Korean face
Looking as you'd think he would
Appearing and kneeling next to his lost lamb
In the ditch half filled with water
Along that deserted country road
"Save me!" cried Kim Lee Park
"Your soul is held in my embrace, my son"
Jesus had nothing but love for this man
"No, asshole, I mean lift the goddamned tractor off me, will ya?"
You have to imagine all this in Korean
It's gripping dialogue in it's native form I assure you
Jesus was taken aback by this demand
And despite himself
He tried to lift the tractor off of his new friend
But his spirit Korean Jesus hands just passed through the tractor's metal frame
Having less effect than a butterfly's wing upon it
Jesus knelt back down with Kim Lee Park
And gave him his Jesus patented Soul Hug
Which gave the man a warm feeling
Much like peeing in a cool water filled bathtub
But little else
Just then Korean Jesus heard a truck at the crossroads
Three hundred yards away at the crossroads
It wasn't coming this way
But Jesus knew he could help
Jesus appeared in the road
Right in the center of the intersection
And pointed over the little rise in the road to the left
Almost hypnotized
The truck driver went that way
Which is the kind of stuff that Jesus is good at
Guiding you Hypnotoad style
Don't be critical
It gets the job done
Truck driver sees the tractor accident
Helps move the tractor off Mr Kim Lee Park
Who predictably turns to the now fading Korean Jesus
And tells him
"Thanks for nothing buddy"
Jesus is used to being discounted
Jesus gives Kim Lee Park another quick soul hug
Saying, "I love you too"
Retiring back to the Green Room area
Until he is needed again
It's tough for a Jesus to get any respect
No matter what face he wears
Responded to prayers
By the faithful and the faithless alike
For there are no atheists in the storm
