at least until the Judgement Day or is
that the Rapture or whatever it is
there's a New Earth and New Heaven says my
Sunday School teacher so I just smile and
nod my head as if she's right, but I don't know,
I'm only ten years old, I don't know squat
compared to her 25, at least
I hope not, I mean I hope that she knows
more and if I'm right then it's possible
that folks who live to be 100 are
intellectuals or geniuses or
whatever I should call 'em, and maybe
dead folks are the smartest ones of all. No
wonder I believe I'll live forever.
