Ripped from the headlines:
“NASA satellite plummeting to earth!”
This is predicted and expected
to happen today
on the autumnal equinox.
Some might think
the confluence of these two events
is not a coincidence,
but another signpost
marking the end times
or the end of time
that is predicted and expected
on the winter solstice.
Looks like it may be time
to get bare-chested and sweaty
in front of a roaring bonfire
to appease the pagan gods, elementals and wood nymphs.
Or just stay in the house wearing a hard hat
watching reality television, while trying
to maintain good posture, so I’m not slouching
towards Bethlehem.
