Post Mortem Note To Mr Eliot
post-mortem note to mr. eliot
dearest thomas,
having lived long enough to see the
a-bomb drop, one wonders if you had
rethought your infamous ending
to “The Hollow Men,”
for most certainly
the world will not go with a
whimper,
we would be so lucky
to be rolled up in the fetus position
down deep in a shadowy corner,
to wither away “whimpering”
a slow & silent
personal demise,
each one of us---
however,
as things look,
the a-bomb will appear a walk in the
park, compared to what we have
coming---
the only justice is that it’s exactly
what we all
deserve.
