The time has come for man's heir.
But what if the end has not come?
For numbers go on Ad infinitum.
Many have said the same before,
Buddhist, Witness, Evangelist to the core.
Not one the riddle have solved,
ever since man evolved.
Where to now, what is foreseen?
Is there anything better in 2013?
Superstition still holds sway,
and hold common sense at bay.
So many wrong from every groove,
no religion has yet been proved.
But one thing for now is certain,
you know not when is the final curtain.
Calendars are out of sync,
I have the right date, so you think.
But like religion you cannot predict,
what is carrot and what is stick.
Death by fire, death by flood,
can you choose? If only you could.
When all has been swept away,
about you then what will they say?
Are you worthy of reward?
What about you will they record?
Have you been a friend or foe?
To which afterlife will you go?
As what was you is no more,
and your reputation now is tore.
Can you say I did my best?
Did you try to be better than the rest?
When this planet has lost it's lustre,
if there was anyone left to muster,
Who will exhalt your name?
Can you say you have no shame?

Can you prove that the world didn't end and was not replaced by an identical copy of itself?

It's what keeps me sane.

Baseball's Lone Mayan Player Ominously Rejects Multi-Year Contract Extension
May 7, 2010
Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Kukulcan Tlacolotl, the only current Mayan player in Major League Baseball, touched off a panic throughout the game and across the globe today when he rejected a multi-year contract extension that would pay him through the 2012 season and into 2013.
"I just don't see the point," said Kukulcan.
...
"A lot of GMs think we are backwards and not modern just because we're from an ancient civilization," he said. "But nothing could be farther from the truth. We rejected their contract offer simply because it was below market value. And if we are disrespected in this way again, I will cut off Neil Huntington's head and throw it into a volcano."
