Billboard

The billboard on the highway Had no product there to sell But asked a question: Will you go To Heaven or to Hell? Below, there was a number You could call or you could text So you could get an answer as to Where you’re going next. I wonder just how many Will give in and make that call, Though hopefully the truth would be Nobody after all. Yet I suspect there are some souls Both gullible and rash Who would, for that information, Part with lots of hard-earned cash.

I thought it was all up to Saint Peter at the Golden Gate? So why call when one can just avoid San Francisco? Aloha! Rico
