What is Death?
F J McCarthy on Jan 5, 2009


I wonder what Death is like.
Does it depend upon how you die?
Is there a thing as heaven or hell?
Or when your buried that’s where you lie.
Is this the only life we get?
Or is there something more?
When we’re buried at sea do we only get wet?
And eventually washed up on shore.
And what about cremation,
Was that really in the plan.
Or will we spend salvation,
in a glorified ash can.
Will there be angels, with harps and wings?
To greet you and show you the way.
Or perhaps there will be devils, with pitchforks and things.
To give you a hideous stay.
And nobody knows, or else they wont tell.
If there really is a heaven or hell.
So live life with vigor,enjoy what you got.
For there may be an afterlife, but probably not.
