Abyss Estates Poem by Hans Ostrom

Abyss Estates



The salesman said, 'Sir, this is a truly unique property.
People- I'm talking philosophers and poets- have talked
about it for years. Now you have a chance to buy a piece of it.
What's that? Yes, technically, you will disappear after you
take possession. Fascinating, huh? In our business, we
call it 'going all in.' It's a gambling term. But the sense

of privacy is unmatched.... Certainly, take your time
to decide. However- and I say this not to pressure you-
only a few parcels remain. You just don't see property
like this every day. But take your time. It's a big decision.
I can get you into Abyss Estates for 10 per cent down.
This thing's going to be an equity-machine. It's the Abyss.
I mean, there's no place like it, sir.'
