The Darker Side of Poetry

Evolving Afterlife

When the cells no longer multiply and organs are held to sacrifice
The unseen of the lifeless body leave its shell
An unknown chemical mutation of constant evolution is unleashed from this hell

The five senses evolve beyond time and space
Our woeful limitations are taken from this place, of failing contradictions and grace

A higher being is reborn with new physical and mental capabilities
Now bound by these mysterious new properties

Previous life lessons learned and new lessons taught
Until this more purified existence reaches conclusion and the new life is sought

And so the process repeats again
This infinite progression of consciousness so hard to comprehend

Maybe hard to believe and difficult to see
This is just one theory of the endless possibilities
