WARNING!!!!! This is a myth...it's not a real religious book, or about any religious icons...If there was a real Maccah the Prophet...it's purely coincidental.....
But is for entertainment...so for those who may think this is real...it isn't...after all this forum is titled "Nothing Is Real"....isn't it?
From the Rutland Book of Life....The Book of Maccah...the Prophet from Maccaisnotpall
Geography lesson: Maccaisnotpall is located south on the Dewesbury Road, west of Strawberry Fields and north of Penny Lane.
There was a famine in the land of Maccaisnotpall and the King was naked and distressed for he had no clothes, because the Emperor of Jonisgone has them. He sent out word to his kingdom to bring him a wise man who could interpret dreams.
So word went out in all the land to find a wise man who could interpret dreams. When a young man named Maccah, handsome in form, and so breataking that when the young maidens saw him, they hurt themselves, for he was so appealing to the eye. So the young prophet and interpreter of dreams entered the palace, the servants of the king took Maccah and dressed him in proper attire fitting for a king...even though the king had no attire of his own.
Before Maccah entered, he closed his eyes, for in that land, living was easy with eyes closed. When the king spoke to the young prophet, he asked if he could interpret dreams. So Maccah told him that he did. And when the king heard that he said, "That's great Maccah that you can interpret dreams. For when I do have a dream that needs to be interpreted, I can call for you to interpret them." Maccah was disturbed that he was taken from his work, also as a lyre player in a local band of musicians called the "Beatlens", who played lyrical music for the people of Maccaisnotpall and other outlying areas. He looked at the king and asked, "Why did you call for a dream interpreter when you didn't have any dreams you needed interpreted?" The King replied, "I also hear that you have a way with words and are a musician." Maccah responded, "Yes, I am also a musician."
Well, the king took in the "Beatlens" as his official royal musicians and they performed for all the crowned heads of Rutland and the royal subjects.
Their fame increased and spread to areas beyond Rutlandia. Maccah was desired by all those who saw him.
But there were evildoers in this Rutlandia who despised Maccah and his band, and where he came from. There was an evil plot to take the life of Maccah, and one fateful night he was kidnapped by some wicked slaves of the tribe of Masonians. He was placed in a chariot, beheaded and sent off a cliff.
The other members of the band, as well as the king sent for Maccah, but he was not to be found for quite a time.
Several passings of the sun and moon came and went before word came to the King that Maccah was found on a beach in Wayoutwia and when he sent his men to find Maccah, it was a sight of horror. What would they do? How could they explain this horrible thing?
Well, a band of aged wisemen thought that if they could find another man to replace Maccah, then things could be as they were, and the band of musicians would continue to spread their pleasant music to the peoples of the land.
They searched far and wide for someone who but resembled Maccah and they found a man, from the motor trade, named Iwiltakover who looked something like Maccah, but needed some work of the magicians and sorcerors to do their magic upon him to make him presentable to the subjects as Maccah.
There was a time while this was taking place that the people of Rutlandia wanted to know where their musicians were? For word had spread out that they did not travel as troubadors, but stayed for the king alone. They demanded to see their favored Maccah.
Well, the magicians did their conjuring and time came when the faux Maccah re appeared with his group of musicians and they performed a special musical event under the name of "Captain Koopepper and Troubled Bowels Band" Which actually was a group of mourners of the fair Maccah who were forced to present themselves as followers with the new and replaced Faccah....
One of the bandmembers named Jopha, had taken a wicked woman from a far land named Yokonoah as his bride, inspite of the warnings of his fellow musicians, and she revealed the secret that the man they thought was Maccah, was an imposter.
So they searched the entire land of Rutlandia to find true relations of Maccah to come to see the imposter. The only surviving member of relatives was an aged blind woman named Sophia and she was brought to hear Maccah speak. The aged Sophia responded in tears,"I may be blind, my eyes may have been dimmed by the gods, but my ears hear this man and he's not Maccah!" In outrage, the flock of people surrounding him grabbed at his cloak, some at his hair and when they tugged, had pulled the hair from his head to reveal he was wearing a wig made with the hairs of a horses' mane. They took the fake Maccah to the outskirts of town and was about to stone him to death, when a strange gust of wind came and magically took Faccah with the wind...never to be seen or heard from again.
Yes, the fake replacement Maccah was gone....gone with the WIND....
You can almost hear an instrumental version of the Song Gone With the Wind as you complete this little story.
May it be well with you....
