a sort of wager
Oct. 15th, 2008 05:12 pm this is the place where odd and even meet
in point of fact there is a choice of gloom
in how and when the fire will best consume
each one of those who dares not to retreat
before the voice that speaks of death and doom
this is the place where odd and even meet
another sort of messenger might greet
any who comes to open up the tomb
to sweep it out with an old-fashioned broom
this is the place where odd and even meet
