Not with a bang

\nThe world ends in a wimper so they say
\nWithout a grand announcement of the show
\nI think we’re safe, it should not be today
\nBut more than that I guess we do not know<\/p>\n
The sun will grow and raise the temperature
\nUntil at last the oceans seethe and boil
\nBut packing now would be quite premature
\nAnd food you stored to use would likely spoil<\/p>\n
I wonder what will happen to mankind
\nWill we abandon home or simply die
\nIt’s just an exercise to work the mind
\nDecisions won’t be left to you and I<\/p>\n
Before the end there’s so much more to see
\nAnd time to write a lot of poetry!
\n Author notes
\nI suspect the couplet will change later …<\/p>\n
I’m curious. Tell me how you think the world will end.<\/p>\n
If you happen to know the date please tell me so I will know when to pack.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
