Endings

What if that third pig was just as lazy, and the wolf ate his fill?
Jack and Jill not really thirsty, so neither fell down the hill?

To be or not to be, and the decision was the latter?
If Richard III got his horse, would it really matter?

If King Arthur pulled out the sword and promptly said no thanks?
Or when Adam and Eve made love, he only shot blanks?

Does it matter if the Hero doesn?t get the girl, just because he?s gay?
Or if there was no resurrection, did Christ still show the way?

All these happy endings, aren?t they just one perspective?
If you dwelled on that, would the moral be as effective?

What if I just stopped asking questions?
What kind of ending would that be?
