A sign was posted

warning about the brink

of a disaster.

A bit like the threats of global warming.

The deniers vow,

"There is no cliff!"

And the pseudo-scientists lecture that

"Gravity is merely a theory."

And the investors say,

"Good for the funeral business."

Bob the car salesman asserts,

"It'll do zero to one hundred in 300 feet!"

In the meantime, many dogs have died here.

Drawn to their demise by mere hypothesis?
