Funny that because I reckon the next war will be over water ?

The hierarchy of paper, scissors and rock can be a bit hard to fathom, but I reckon fire would be trumped by water . . . but then there's bloody war which seems to win every time.

Enjoyed your poem, Neville

I think there will be an end of me long before an end of the world Hully, so I don't worry about the world ending.

Thanks Marty.

[Hully]

its just that your poem reminded me of that Robert Frost poem - Fire and ice

Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I’ve tasted of desire
I hold with those who favour fire.
But if it had to perish twice,
I think I know enough of hate
To say that for destruction ice
Is also great
And would suffice

Yeah I know that one, Robert Frost was a fine poet I have a thick book of his poems, I have read right through.
