End of the World

[hafoc]

They keep rescheduling the damned thing
From "Some Apostles will live to see it"
down through every significant anniversary
or any time a preacher had a nightmare

To some hilltop in 1843
to 1900, 1901, 1908, 1910...
to the millennium in 2000 (or was it 2001?)

And now it's set for 2012
Because that's where the Mayans
ran out of paper, bark, knotted strings
or whatever the hell
they used down there

But you know, if this goes on long enough
Sooner or later somebody's going to get it right.

Given that at least one major Christian cult keeps going despite having repeatedly gotten it wrong, I would not worry about the end of the world until people STOP predicting it.

Or something we SHOULD have prepared for catches up with us.
