Weekend Overture

One of the speakers wrapped himself up via the following declamation,
“Intelligence without humility
is like a banquet without a telegram.”

 

Having no father of his own,
this one kid gave himself some advice,
“If you lose your place
you can go faster.”

 

As one Neural Subversive once told his charges,
“If you really think this is tough
just remember that working solely for Life
is the ultimate ball-buster.”

 

While waiting for the concert to begin
I borrowed a program and found that the composer
had entitled his new symphony,
“As I look back over my life I regret one of two things;
either that I had a life or that I looked back.”
(Oops, gotta run, the overture just overtook me.)

 

On this planet up near the humid zone, they have two major religious groups,
“The first death is the hardest,”
and another group called, “It is not!”
(You might also be interested to know that on their moon
two distinct systems likewise predominate,
one that says, “The first death is the hardest,” and
the other that says, “Stuff IT!”)
