A prophetic clerihew




Ezekiel
was full of prophetic zeal.
He was only wrong when it came to bets
on the Browns and the Mets.

What are Cubs and Mets?

A Secular Franciscan said...

Baseball teams often named as "losers" - though the Mets did win the World Series in 1986. The Cubs have not won since 1908.

Oh, and has any namesake of Hezekiel been betting on either or both?

And now the Cubs have won, requiring that I revise the clerihew!
