Poem for UPS Girls
Last night as I lay sleeping
I died or so it seemed,
Then I went to heaven
But only in my dream
Up there St Peter met me
Standing at the pearly gates,
He said "I must check your record
Please stand here and wait."
He turned and said "Your record
Is covered with terrible flaws,
On earth I see you rallied
For every losing cause."
I see that you drank alcohol
And smoked and partied too,
Fact is, you've done everything
A good person should never do.
We can't have people like you up here
Your life was full of sin,
Then he read the last of my record
Took my hand and said "Come in."
He led me up to the big boss and said
"Take her in and treat her well,
She used to work at UPS
She's done her time in hell."

Then from Hell proper rose Satan
To the gates from which he'd been thrown
and three times did he knock when Peter with angst did open.
"Light bearer, what business have you here?"
"Mortal soul, wouldst thou question me?
And if my answer were that the Master of Denial three times over
had his place in Hell with the Betrayer, would you descend with me?"
At the Saint's discomfort the Accuser chuckled, "No, fool 'tis not you.
But one of mine you have. In the brown of sewer she's clothed and her
record is well known."
And Peter, all denial gone looked sheepishly Hellward.
Silently strode forth the UPS girl to Satan's waiting embrace.
No fear in her eyes and a smile on her lips as she leaned forward and
whispered, "The party didn't start without me, did it?"
