Page 13

THE DAMN THING     PAGE 13.

AFTER ARMAGEDDON, continued.

And somewhere within, a hollow drum
Booms out its mournfull death call irregularly.
And the sign rises from the Chaos---
The very center of the battleground;
For all around it are the remains
Of implements of destruction of the highest order,
Abondoned with hopeless haste;
Quite as hastily as Man abondoned his own position
For the seedlings of a greater race to come.
Now he lies in decaying rust at the feet of the letters.

Who build tthe sign, it is hard to say ,
But of this it is quite certain--
He is human, or was,
And as a human, quite fuitle--
As was all Man futile.
For now there is no one left
Who can read or appreciate
The dying gasp that built it.
It is left alone with its Chaos
To lift its stocky shape forlornly
Save for the booming of the drum
And the sterile and declining tribesmen.
****Truly and ignominous finale.
