Appointment with the Grim Reaper Sam Adams One day received a summons From the Grim Reaper The note read “Your appointment For final status determination (FSD) Is confirmed for midnight Saturday A driver will come for you Be prepared Tell no one This appointment is high Q level classified.” Sam got up at 11:30 And waited for the courier While his wife slept There was a knock on the door He went out The courier was dressed In a black uniform But did not look entirely human He had a blank face No hair And horns on his head He said I am your driver today After your hearing I will drive you Either to Hell, Or to heaven Or back here If you are given a reprieve Of your FSD They drove off In his black SUV The plates read, 666 hell They soon entered A dark forbidding forest The road ended They got out And walked Found themselves In a large field They parked And walked To a large black tent A demon attendant Barked Name and DOB Sam Adams 10-30-195 You have an appointment With Mr. GR Proceed to door number 2 For you FSD Good luck He entered the room Mr. GR dressed in black Wearing cool Ray-ban glasses Looked up from his computer Sam Adams He growled You have been given a reprieve From Hell For five years Your next FSD will be final Probably Hell but maybe Heaven That decision is beyond my pay grade You may go back home My driver will drive you Go! The driver took him home He went to bed Woke up convinced It was all a dream Later that day A letter arrived Appointment with GR For final status determination Has been confirmed for Five years from today’s date We advise you to get Your affairs in order There is no appeal From the final FSD May 1,2021
