When You Least Expect It
|
Nov 26 04:14 UTC 1997 |
When you least expect it, it will come,
As you're watching football on the tube
Or grabbing a quick snack from the fridge
Or studying for next week's hour exam.
As you turn the corner in the hall
Or reach the midpoint of the basement stairs
Or take a book to read from off the shelf
It will come then, when you least expect.
Will you see it first, or hear, or feel,
Or taste, or smell? What will be the first
Sense to be aware that it has come, to
Know the doom of all is here at last?
You know not, so to present needs attend;
Knowing will not matter, in the end.

The Snord's poem is really about people being "ambushed" by a couple
panksters from Atlantis using kiwi cream pies and a fancy teleporter.
Obviously you don't get it at all.

The gate is in the lab, dear. And it's no longer called teleporting. It's
jaunting.

No, decidedly the TP lab. He might possibly be in the spaceship now, but I
think he's still in the TP lab. You'll have to ask an original series member..

Is that related to the TVA, or TPE?
Or is the answer TBD?

None of the above, few of the below.
Here's your clue for the day:
"The stones shall move, the stars shall shine, and a shadow long shall fall
upon the earth"
