Day 24

Resurrection

We have eternal life
Just not as us, that's all
That's the thing
That really pisses us off
We become soil and trees
And worms and flowers and rain
And a thousand million
Trillion other living things
But never us,
Not us, ever again

But we're only a mix
Of garbled memories
A reinvention
Of what's gone long before
We were alive back then
And we'll be alive again
Just not as us, that's all
It's nature's best joke
Alive or dead
We are already ghosts
