in the last available instant
before your locomotive
of frozen delight
arrives
the hamburger of death
eats you
- - -
P.S. for extra points:
"in the last available instant" or
"within the last available instant" or
"on the last available instant" or
"at the last available instant" ?
i.e.
Does an "instant" have an inside or is it, like a "point", infinitesimal?
What about "moment"?
Or OK, maybe "second"?
And does the "hamburger of death" take longer than above to eat you?
How long? Related to some inverse function of the number of angels
needed to manufacture each frozen delight?
