Time to die
Chapter 17
It took Wayne a long time to die,
2But he didn’t have much to say while he was doing it,
3Except one thing, as follows:
4“You’re all crazy, you lousy punks,
5“Because the rest of the world believes the way I do,
6a“And the whole civilized world operates in accordance with this belief,
7“And you’ll never get to bfirst base trying to change it,
8c“Because it’s buried too deep to root out,
9“And all that’s left is waiting anyway,
10“Because it’s finished.”
11And with that, Wayne was dfinished too.
