A matter of life or death

June 8, 2022

For me

Death is

Fearful.

I am

Afraid

Of not

Knowing.

And I say..

"I know this!

I Know life..

But I don't know

Death, and I'm

Terrified of

Not knowing."

The 'truth' is

I don't know

Life,

Any more

Than I know

Death.

And in this

Most obvious

Unknowing,

'The great unknown'

That death

Seemed to be,

Is not apart

From life.

This is not

An answer

To the question

Of death,

But an end to

The question

Of death.
