ARCHAEOLOGY OF RELATIONSHIPS

we were talking about her
because we can no longer talk with her
and i asked "what happens after?"
her honest reply"i do not know"made me smile
for i do not know,and this resonates deeply
Things we see-death,decay,endings,
are as true as our senses allow
(no one returns to tell us the how,why nor where
and stories,myths and legends fill our brows
We seem embedded in time/relationships
shared like RASHOMON(each of us a different witness
each seeing a different INCEPTION(a TROY of emotions
Dig deeper,facts and science reveal exceptions-
those who came back from the dead.those who saw Lights and angels
long tunnels and heard voices when they seemed totally unconscious
and each of these experiences singular ,individual,unique
No one rule governs all-which is why we should talk
about death,and endings,beginnings and memories
for we hold all living in our hearts and minds
and every one of us is lodged in time.(Memento mori.)
