A dreamless sleep through the ages
disturbed by a flash of light.
Prenatal or postmortem -
it's existence nullified.
And I know there is nothing to fear.
Nothing was my home before I came here.
And I don't recall any unpleasantries.
Graves of down, torpid minds
in a state of oblivion.
Life returns with the memories
evoked by the morning sun.
And I know there is nothing to fear.
Nothing was my home before my mind reappeared.
And I will sleep for eternity.
Yet the horror remains deep inside the stomach.
Not a regular fear - it's philosophical.
When the curtain comes down there will be Nothing,
with no "I" to perceive - it's unimaginable.
