Death Becomes Me


Death becomes me:


I have actually been practicing for it

my entire life!

That first breath—
I could have held onto it forever!

I knew I could have,
but I let go:
and surrendered my immortality.

I’ve been surrendering my godliness
Ever since…

Ah, the pith and the pain. Loved it! And brevity, me thinks, was the right approach.

Surrender. I like this one.
