I’m so proud of my versification of the Boring Prophet from Life of Brian from this comment thread that I’m giving it its own post. May Otis the (Almost) Prophet live on!

¹There shall, in that time,
   be rumours of things going astray, erm,
And there shall be a great confusion
   as to where things really are.

²And nobody will really know
   where lieth those little things wi—
       with the sort of raffia work base
           that has an attachment.

³At this time,
   a friend shall lose his friend’s hammer.

⁴And the young shall not know
   where lieth the things
       possessed by their fathers
   that their fathers put there
       only just the night before,
           about eight o’clock.
