 When I Die


When I die,
There will be no such things
As regrets.
There's none now,
& there are none then…
Because I love & live
Free as the wind…
As expansive as the Universe,
As diverse as all the worlds
Imagined by mankind & beyond,
Deeper than electron microscopes
Can look into the parts
Of an atom,
As unconditional
As a Human being can
& still remain in
this world.

Some people
Burn the candle
At both ends.
Not me.
I burn the whole
Damn candle
At once,
In a bath of
Kerosene,
And giggle
At the funny colors
From the copper
Coil
I threw in
For fun…
I find new
And entertaining
Ways to burn
Hot, bright
& colorful.

When I die,
There will absolutely be,
Nothing left.
I will have said it,
Done it,
Tried & mastered it.
No heart will be left,
Untouched,
Saved the ones
Not yet born,
& even they will have
their turn.

When I die,
Even my enemies
Will admit
That I left
A deep impression
And loved more
People than
Anyone ever before
Dared to try…
And I did
& will try,
to love you,
without conditions,
borders & boundaries,
because I will love
you, as far
as you will let me in.

When I die,
They will say,
She loved so deeply
No one ever wanted to see
The depths of her sadness
Or anger…
She could break your heart
With her own sadness,
Because it encompassed
All of humanity…
One's own sadness
Compounded
By billions.
Her anger swift &
Fierce, for
Stupidity, open hatred
& willful
Ignorance…
Never for something
Trivial…
And on her
Rests the Quote,
Beware the poet's
Pen.

When I die,
I will have accomplished
What I came here
To do.
To love the world
On behalf
Of my beloved,
The Divine,
God,
Goddess,
The Sea
Of Human Consciousness,
For you,
For me,
For us all…

I LIVED…
& that is what
they will say
when I die.

But it won't
Take my funeral
For them
To say it…

Because…
When I die
They will be too busy,
Having the biggest
Damn Manea Party
You have EVER seen.
