Three men

Rhymisms
Feb 26, 2021

Let me tell you of three men,
who went their separate ways at end:
The first demanded to keep earth
yet lost it all, for what it’s worth.
Then the fellow who was second,
let go of all he had for heaven,
but the last insisted on his hell,
and when he had breathed his last,
that’s exactly where he fell –
he received just what he asked!
