About the Mayan Doomesday CalendarA Poem by Elton CampThe World to end in 2012.About the Mayan Doomsday Calendar By Elton Camp A lot of gullible people got quite a scare By a preacher saying the end was there To know that is certainly not in his power Because nobody can know the day or hour As if we hadn’t heard enough of that before A strange Mayan calendar has folks in a roar It shows that the end of the world’s next year And that has many quaking in greatest fear But those violent pagans had no way to know When, into destruction, this world would go That, even God’s son and angels are unaware So why with ancient Mayans would he share? Reasonable, sensible possibilities we have to face Maybe with 2012, the Mayan had used up the space Or, like other religious frauds, the calendar maker Developed the calendar to sell and was a profit-taker So, do I think the prophecy will fail? Of course! For one thing, it is coming from the wrong source And if about such an event they could foretell, Why didn’t they see their own downfall as well?
