Heh, hate to rain on the parade (and i *did like your clever poem, milum) but as for originality, as i read it i was immediately reminded of the lyrics to one of my favorite Venice songs:
Hell will freeze
Love will grow on trees
And the rivers all will run dry
The birds won't sing
And the bells won't ring
There will be no stars in the sky
The truth will be untrue
One and one will not be two
And I'll do something I'll never do
When I get over you
The moon won't glow
And the wind won't blow
There will be no lesson to learn
Life will be too long
Right will be all wrong
And this world will no longer turn
The blues will not be blue
When I get over you
ps: Is there a rhetorical term for this type of expression? (Conditioning an occurence upon another, impossible occurence?) I suppose, in a strict rhetorical sense, it would simply be ironyŽ, hmm?
