Keeping the Hell Fires Burning
Reorge Kemp
‘Tis Five o’clock and all is well
Gramps has died and gone to hell
Just the day he said he would
For Satan had need of firewood.
There was a time not long ago
The devil said, “It’s time to go.”
“I’ll stay and here’s the reason.
Give me fifty more years to season
Because you know that older wood
Is drier and burns real good.”
