Revelation!

REVELATION

Forsooth! What manner of message is this?
Could it be you take the piss?
But nay, tarry a while.
As in art, it mayn’t be piss but bile,
And who is to know.  As the bubbles rise
In piss the seer oft espies,
If his mind is open and immersed
And in the ancient arts well versed,
The sacred number, forty-two
(He even sees it in doggy-doo,
Reading messages in the shape,
Texture and bits of last night’s cake).
Forgive me, though, and hold again -
Perhaps this experience is common to men.
(Women too, though less inclined
To adventures of the inebriate kind.)
Of ignorant, uneducated folk I’ve heard,
Who would never have read of divining by turd,
And would certainly have no certification
In the ancient art of divination
Who, upon returning from the Pub
Then throwing up into the tub,
Contemplating all that chunder
Suddenly exclaim in wonder
The awesome, pre-cognitive cry -
“Hell, I’m really going to die!”

So of course GooRoo, in view of all that, I’m prepared to believe that you really did discover a sacred manuscript on a dunny wall in Charters Towers.  Have you considered publishing it. It could make it big in the New Age book market?   It’s only drawback is that it’s prognosis appears to me to be short-term. Perhaps I’m not reading enough into it.  I  suppose if it’s genuine it could well be an archetype and applicable to all situations everywhere like most scriptures even where they apparently contradict.  Perhaps if I could see the actual dunny wall myself I would apprehend it rather than comprehend it and truly understand.  Thanks for sharing it with me.  I really, really appreciate it.  It’s amazing.  Fantastic.  Out of this world.  I’ll have to do the same for you one day.  Have you read Khalil Gibran yet?  Or the Alcoholics Anonymous manual?  Your devoted disciple,Hugh.
