Poetry: Final judgment

by Paul Roe

Created on: March 26, 2010

In every fresco of heaven,
All the angels are blond,
And all the entering souls
Have milky locks as well.
Will I make it into heaven
With my slick-black hair?
My face is very pale,
But will the cherubs care?

Will they grant me white locks
If my life proves blond enough?
Or is having blond hair
A strict prerequisite?

Soon enough I will know,
When my soul is whisked away,
If my tresses will be gold
And where I will stay.
