Averaging
Them Up
By BERTON BRALEY


It's true the histories are filled
With prophets, laughed at in their
day,
Who. after they were dead-or killed,
Were proven right in every way.
Yet for one true prophetic wight
Ten cranks were jeered at by the
throng;
The crowd is generally right,
The prophet, generally wrong.
If every dreamer's dreams came true,
If every prophets words were fact,
The mob" would take another view
OF what they say and how they
act.
But bolshevik and blatherskite
Have proved through many years
and long,
The public's generally right,
The prophet, generally wrong.
SO go ahead and prophesy,
Expound your theory or scheme;
If you're correct, why by and by
1t will be better than a dream.
For only time can settle quite
With just which outfit you belong,
With those few prophets who were
right
Or that vast number who were
wrong.
