Dear Allah

---Dear ALLAH,
We do not talk a lot,
Maybe we should,
just maybe we should.

In the mean time, 
and until we learn how
to talk to you, Allah
as well as God,

we would like to allow
you the company of one
of our own,
he may introduce himself
as Cassius Clay,

but in case you do not
recognize who he is,
let me tell you now,
that he is The Greatest.

Well, maybe not greater than you, Allah
but he is none-the-less
The Greatest
and maybe you will
recognize him as
Muhammed Ali
yep, that Greatest.

You will right away see him
fighting again,
fighting for what is right
and good and just.
He will not rest in Peace,
He will constantly fight for Peace.

He is our Greatest.
And he will be your greatest,
in short order.

And he just might introduce us
to an Allah
we have failed to see.
Wouldn't it be great
if we and God and Allah

had a real heart to heart conversation?
I bet he can arrange that.
