One day you’re dead and the next day you’re—well
Gale Acuff
—I guess there is no next day and for that
matter not really a day on which you
die, your days end with death and what happens
next I don’t know though at church and Sunday
School they claim to: You’re in Heaven to be
judged, your soul that is, and if you pass then
God keeps you there for Eternity but
if you’ve been unforgivably bad that’s
like saying that Jesus died in vain so
you go to Hell for it and as for how
they know when I asked my teacher after
class she shushed me and looked around and
said Be careful, He might be listening, which
He always is. Christ, everyone knows that.
