Poetry: Hell

by Geoffrey Schmitt

Life is what you make it

Heaven's hope is love

Hell maybe the worst of all

We choose it like a glove

Some say that hell is full of fire

As greater bards have writ

And Ice by others is required

But who am I to spit

These futile words upon the page

To make my betters squeal?

I 'm just a fool I am no sage

And Hell's my rhyme to steal.
