the End Is Near
A bum walked the sidewalk
With a sign proclaiming THE END IS NEAR.
Passersby occasionally remarked,
'What is it the end of, fishing in the bay due to mercury contamination? '
-Or-
'Is it the intrusion of the sea due to the polar ice caps melting? '
But he never answered stupid questions;
He just kept walking with the sign.
A man asked him one day,
'Does that mean the end of all things is coming? '
The dosser handed him the sign, saying,
'It's now your turn.'
