In afternoon glow

I ought to take an interest in death
but I don´t find it a stimulating subject
it has to do with acceptance.
This is comforting since I’m not religious
but has a strong spiritual streak.
I believe in the mystic.
What we fail to understand in normal life can be understood by
a second sight.
I can see the near future
based on experience.
I believe in the existence of ghost
they are people who have not accepted they are dead
and are, generally speaking, unhappy.
Since the devil does not occur, he doesn’t care
about sad ghosts.
I have seen my dead dog on several occasions she lives in my mind
and appears happy, especially when it rains and I can´t leave the house.
Here I manly laugh, look at my wristwatch
my god, it is nearly eight o´clock
time for a glass of red wine.
