My
Afterlife Perspective
I
have an afterlife perspective on life
that
gives me all the freedom I want
to
walk through every system of human
thought
and not get stuck in the mire
of inevitable
doubt; and as happy as I
am
in my afterlife perspective, it’s
not
something that I can share without
being
labelled “strange,” “weird,” or
“something
else.” But not unlike the
mystic
poet of Amherst, Massachusetts
who
told her truth “slant,” I work my
afterlife
perspective on life in the poems
I
write, because that’s what I’ve been
called
upon by life to do.
Composed
in Georgian Bay, Ontario
Monday,
April 8, 2024, on the day
of
a total solar eclipse.
