From Europe to America, the ancient rubbles of eternity, a seemingly shining bush who speaks like a God to his chosen people: “I’m going to make a third World in my image and in my likeness, I will teach them my ways in bright sayings, they will see through the eyes of my dreams, and the tablets of my wisdom will be their Culture.
He paused and continued saying: “I will be their light, and they will be my Glory… this is my gift to you, my children”.
Little did they know, that from beginning of time, he never was a god, he was just a silly bush, and his voice was the dream of a people, the bush people. So they took his voice, and lit their dreams in fire and burning sulfur.
John Olaoluwa Modupe is a Nigerian/Italian stand up comedian, his new hour “The Glory & the Bush” (a Manual for bush people) premieres September 27th in London at The Chelsea Theatre.
