The Ending  
Sean December 31st, 2004
 
A sage named "B" told us horror tale The book of revelations scary stuff
All is over next Spring - a vale of travail. Priests elaborate running  a bluff
But before we quite our jobs and pray For those last days I hear no "toc tic"
Maybe stronger  facts are in play. Scaring God's children is a sick trick   
No conspiracy exists if its just a hoax  Those that doubted branded  heretic
A web page source not enough coax. Inquisition  schemes not too slick.
Nostradamus used to whip up panic TV evangelists speak of the last days
A hundred years for depressing manic. Update the scriptures myriad of ways.
"A" in the bowels of a fish All to terrorize us to follow a path
Submarine atomic forced a wish.  Try to convince god's all about wrath.
One step up from tea leaves and entrails They need your help with little money
Fabricating events with vapor trails.  Smooth your way your  salvation honey.
Now some pseudos are selecting events Remember that Y2K scare at last turn
Fires, floods, earth wobbles and rents.  Doom  gloom computer clock churn.
Comets, meteors will hit us next year But just a few program's need updated
The scare the same the end is near.  Tweak  your system vendors elated.
One prediction is bound to be right Lots of business puffed up scare
But still no reason to stay in fright. Stroke after midnight ho-hum stare.
Irony of conspiracy bout "end times" Need a solution for no oil and gas
Whimper - bang diehards fend rhythms. For tree  shortage do I say a mass?
Yet they hid problems all too real Couple of things - consider to do
Check  Malthus out its  a better spiel. Concoct a war kill a billion or two.
Too many people too few resources If not enough feed elders to sharks
Big powers don't want to change horses. Saves plot space and burial marks.
Prisoners stay employed gathering stuff On future flights send the blind
Shirkers in the cargo is that enough? They don't want to be left behind. 
Load  flight with lots of drugs and liquor Toss in the mentally retarded
Gamble  high stakes time goes quicker. More jobs for us when their parted.
Cops -  paid on leave let loose Vote a minister aboard who's clear
Keep order aboard anyway they choose.  That most believes the end is near. 
The great Buddha had another view In Christian scripture Matthew 24:36 
Infinite ends infinite starts anew. No one knows end time nothing's a fix. 
Focus on no harm here and now Keep watch be ready do good today
Every entity its own path to bow. The second coming is coming some day.
One moment of insight he saw all  To this day nations not in synch
Interconnections grand and small. Moon or sun debating calendar  link.
Let's  send our crap to the sun This plan gives back life to the sun. 
Payload competition could be fun. Let's us sacrifice our junk our scum. 
Taliban pilots on a one way trip Prolongs  supernova if "B" is  wrong
Reality TV films  the solar clip. Keeps away the death knell gong. 
So much to export where's the reward? Could even try to ram a runaway
Scavengers keep all they can hoard.  Just for practice to save the day. 
   
  Live each day like its your last
  One day you'll be right a blast. 
  Til then be kind to fools and foes
  Then your set for global blows.
  Let's just try not to be the cause
  Don't write our self-destruction clause.
