Hope you get a laugh. There's other tales
like this I love to hit you with in poems, but I had to dress it up some.

Fast and Frozen

At the gates of heaven one man asks another,
What caused your loss of life my brother,

Froze to death , don’t think they’ll let me in,
I was doing something that I shouldn’t a been,

Heart attack got me, they might refuse me too,
What Does freezing feel like, does it turn you blue?

Yeah it does, but you don’t never feel it
You drift off to sleep and it’s bye in just a minute,

How bout that heart attack, is there a lotta pain,
Yeah , but I just felt it once , didn’t come back again,

I was a crazy jealous man, as jealous as could be,
I could not believe, my wife was cheating me,

I had come home early, to catch them at their play,
I searched every nook and cranny where a man could stay,

I saw my wife look up the stairs. Could that be where’s he’s at?
Racing up the stairway, my death was caused by that,

Other man said , It’s really kinda ironic, that today we both arrive,
If you took the time to look in your freezer, we’d both still be alive!

Never knew that freezing could cause a heart attack. Now I know. Continue to traipse around in subzero weather naked with my bad heart. ;-)

You are back in your stride, Tom. This one's got it all. Aplomb. Stealth well under cover. Surprise: without making it an excuse for ranting aloud. You conceal your "naughtiness" in Zen-fashion re human frailty. All housed in your well-structured formula. The tail whip of a laugh at the very end. Kudos. Every good wish.

gave me a smile again Tom, glad i wasn't the one in the freezer. got caught once with a girlfriend in her apartment by her mother but i hid in the hall closet. i got worried though i forgot my signature cowboy boots by the couch, and her mother knew them well. i had my naked rear and back against that door, i'll tell you.
