Wednesday; A Satire; The News Paper Man;

Satire; The News Paper Man;

Waiting at death’s door,  the news paper man said:” the good news are, there is no hell; the bad news are there is no heaven”. 

A deep sigh and  he floats softly as an atom; finally settling in a sapling... 

100 years have passed just like that. The sapling grew and grew and grew  stretching its branches to the sky. 

Ready; the chainsaw made short work and the pulp mill was waiting.

In the morning, when  turning  the pages of a News Paper  one can hear faintly a sigh…and a hiss…bloody  hell!
