I figured he was borderline
insane,
I liked to visit every day to
gloat,
for seven stinking years we'd had
no rain -
so, why the hell would Noah build
a boat?
I watched them work, the whole
damn family,
to build what Noah liked to call
"The Ark"
though we're a hundred miles from
the sea,
that didn't stop them working -
dawn till dark!
Then one day it was finished -
what a sight!
An ocean-going ship on desert
beach,
he must have got the animals at
night,
I thought it quite amazing - two
of each!
It flooded - history will tell
you that,
and me? I swam till I reached
Ararat! |
