when Pearl passed
I placed on her  tombstone 
an old pair of bone dice 
and a short prayer
maybe she’ll get lucky...

The door slams shut after the confessional and before the pearly gates....

Disremembered Sins
I stood before the pearly gates
Awaiting entrance in,

Unaware of impediments 
To bar my entering,

Then they came back to haunt me,
My disremembered sins....

There I was standing at the Pearly Gates
I was so excited to learn my fate
   First, they sat me down
   On my head a crown
Then the question ~ What are your pronouns, mate?!...

Heaven Awaits
Happiness awaits, in the heaven's above.
Through those pearly gates;
   Our Father awaits.
We are always loved, from our Father above!
 He knows who we are and what we can be.
Only thee, can choose to be, what he meant for you to be....

Death Is here, At the door With boiling arms And macabre charms To lend a gnarly hand And escort my life away, On an exclusive one-way trip Through July hell ‘til it sheds its grip, Halting when through the Pearly Gates I slip.

Premium Member Pearls of Wisdom
No pearls of wisdom awaits

No greetings at pearly gates

No angel's wings or golden things

Nor judgement that seals our fates

No eulogies will be read

No memories of the dead

No blinding light or second sight

Only darkness lies ahead...

Rip Tide
I hitchhiked up to Limbo
  to await that final toll

But lost my way when Siren’s called
  which led me to the shoals

My thumb went back inside my palm,
  their voices soft and low

No closer to those pearly gates
 —this darkened undertow

Premium Member Ye Old Jalopy
Ye old jalopy of the junkyard
spiffed up
   with spinning tires
hydroplaning of the weather vane
    no ejection seat
    no buckle to fumble
open air
     hit from behind
the child held with grandma’s wrought iron arms
   grandpa’s at the pearly gates
chooses lemon-lime
