The First Last Supper

who would
have known
after all
was said
and done

the last of the
Mohicans had
left the room
and Elvis 
had left 

the building
but if you 
still didn't 
get it 
the

proverbial
fat lady
played this
time by Ethel 
Merman

is singing
every
thing's
coming
up roses

as the bus
boy buses
the table
he swears
he never saw

a grail

Clever use of old sayings. I see you are a Mel Brookes Fan. Lucky for us you didn’t locate the”Holy Hand Grenade.”
