Conversations With The Dead

“Why is it that the dead are seen as gone?”

I mean… are the people who think that really wrong?

“We are simply out of reach like distant stars!”

Still farther than I can get to by car.

“Death is another stage of life in a way.”

So then why is it that in death you stay?

“No angel of Death can steal someone’s light.”

So what? You stare down Death and ask for a fight?

“The sun dips below the horizon, but it always returns.”

Did you die in 1604 of a head injury so you’ll never learn?

“Shut your ignorant mouth, for I am a ghost and should be praised!”

Not my fault you wouldn’t stay stuck in your grave.

“Well, thank you for your purely poetic insight, you tool!”

And thank you for absolutely nothing, you ghoul.
