A demon's breakfast comes when
the limpid soul falls into the nether.
An angel's brunch comes when the levitating
soul enters the empyrean.
Which way should I go?
Up or down?
A demon chews quickly.
An angel eats methodically
with a celestial fork.
Which way did I choose before?
In a past death,
did I choose up or down?
I can't remember.
Transmigration is a nebulous business.
Why do I have to choose at all?
Can't I just hover above that pale
cadaver, that ex. me, and
watch the dissolving process?
It would be much easier.
I wouldn't have to think.
I would just look at the carrion flesh,
the blank stare, and the
world that once was.
Say, do you think God knows
how to get rid of karma once
and for all?
