Dying innumerable deaths
In this lifetime
Dying countless more
Until the goal is achieved.
A moment outside
Under the sun
Knowledge of ones life passing
Still attempting to attend to affairs
Of the physical realm until the very end
A single tear
Containing all the information
That ever was
And ever will be
Sliding down the face upon a rebirth.
Viewing ones self
As they slip away,
From above the couch
They’ve dissociated on
& among the spiral
Of a genetic conceptualization
Of furniture
Asztal, szék,
Is found
Symbolism
Carpentry
Sky
I was all good…
…right?
Eventually I woke up,
Except for in the timelines
Of the frequencies
In which I didn’t.
You know
Sometimes words
Have two meanings.
A very real
Red laser scope
Pointed at my chest
Arms spread wide
Embracing death as a lover
Waking up in a stairwell
In a warehouse in Detroit
The person who had brought me out
Was meant to keep me safe
Had failed in this
Aware of the tears on his face
As I tell him,
No, I am OK, look,
Can’t you see me alive right here?
But he couldn’t see me alive,
There or anywhere else,
Because we left that one,
On to the next one.
Dearly beloved,
We are gathered here today.
The most off-putting part
Of it all
Hearing the continuations
Of realities
As they go on
Without my physical vessel
To contain me.
The car we hit
Must have been a ghost itself
Abandoned in the center lane
Of a highway in Wisconsin
During a blizzard
This particular death
The price paid
For a Sunn Model T
The Subaru
It’s AI Eye
Jumped out of the way
At the last minute
And though I continue on
There is no other way
To explain the massive
Crunch
As it happened
And it was this death
Wherein reality started to fractal exponentially
Death in one
Living the Coma Mirror in another
Splitting
Branching
Doubling
Tripling
Converging
Unification
The attempts
To reach
A non-dark destination.
Success.
