here i am
someday i’ll go
to where?
what form?
i’ll never know
this lifetime wrapped
soul wrapper, scrapped
how best
to prep for
the long nap?
a hollow well
to perma-dwell,
the oldest
form of
burial?
with headstone, though?
well, that’s a no
i’d rather
let my
selfhood go
how ‘bout a pyre?
to ash from fire
particulate’s
a frequent
flier
processes rich
an -ation niche
mummific-, crem-,
‘n’aquam-
bewitch
beyond ‘be’ flow
what’s most eco?
a mycosuit
or pod
below?
and as for place,
sea, sky or space?
x marks
no spot
but subtle trace
they’ll call me late
a wink of fate
as ‘me’
turns mealworm
dissipate
what follows, lo!
free of ego
rejoins
the cosmic
order so…
oh look! a star
aloft, afar
it’s carbon
sharing its
memoir
expressive arc
alighting dark
trailblazing
testament
to hark
