At The Death Of Lazarus, The Beggar, 2

[after Luke 16]

 

Lazarus died and was by angels carried.
The rich man died alone and, thus, was buried.
Lazarus went to fellowship with Abraham.
The rich man went where his sins gave a damn.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

The last line of the poem is, of course, taken from a popularly profane phrase.
