The Hamlet Project

A man who doesn’t believe in prophecy
Suddenly begins to read meaning in signs.
A ghost appears: Our country is fucked.
The one thing doesn’t usually follow the other
But in this case
He’s right.
He may preface his predictions
With qualifications
But the man has put his finger
On the volcano in the midst of Denmark
About to blow.
Then, in telling his friend about it
He hastens its explosion.
