Heaven or hell Rich or poor Does it matter when you score? Beautiful or ugly Young or old Does it matter what you’re told? Fast or slow Smart or dumb Does it matter when we’re done? Black or white Conservative or liberal Does it matter for those cerebral? Wise or foolish Healthy or sick Does it matter what we pick? Tall or short Thin or fat Does it matter where you’re at? Faithful or faithless Alone or coupled Does it matter if not troubled? Opulent or thrifty Narcissist or shy Does it matter as long as you try?

Wow! What a great poetic place to meet.
Who would not want to go to Heaven's Street?

I for one would love to meet Jesus Christ face to face.
As for this old crusty earth, you can have this place!

For when the finish line is nearing the end.
I would rather meet you in Heaven, my dear friend.

Amen

Very powerful piece. The last line sums up what I believe in. Does it matter as long as you try. This is my first reading of yours and glad I found it. We think a like now that I have found a new path in life. Gave up the negatives.Thanks for this piece, very well done!

Conservatives love,
Liberals hate.
Yes, it matters
how we mate.
