LEARNING TO BE. . .
been dead a week
before I knew it
thought the world had gone
a bit transparent
people walking through me
like ghosts
only I was the ghost
just couldn't get used to it
bit boring being dead
nothing much to do
except hang around old haunts
and try to remember who
the hell I am
who I used to be
and what
happens now
I mean is there a part 2 or what
or is this it
and when does Heaven arrive
or
does it?
I watch the rain
falling through me
my 3 year old cries
her tears hurt me
I want to cry but
- can't:

A friend of mine "died' for a couple of minutes and I asked her did she float to the ceiling and look down upon her self or go towards a beautiful bright light at the end of the tunnel only to be turned back? Instead she said she saw herself as her own ghost trying to get used to "this being dead lark" and watching her little girl crying over her. She thought: ".. if this is the afterlife...it *****!" and made a conscious effort to come back and come back she did! Dying wasn't for her! She is at the moment living...happily ever after.
