Dear Massive Asteroid,
You are cordially invited to the grand event of Apocalypse 2012, scheduled to happen on our modest home, Earth.
Yours sincerely,
An earnest earthling.

Dearest fellow Earthlings,
I am counting on your hospitality. Stop bickering and killing each other. Let us all unite, and make preparations to receive our celestial guests, so that they might return again.
Yours sincerely,
A dreamer.
A few men have been guided by a dream. Rest have almost always been led, mostly by fear and premonitions.

Some say the world will end in fire,
Some say in ice.
From what I've tasted of desire
I hold with those who favor 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.
