Negation


Negation

Other than writing I have no life
Come on end it
We are going to die.
Even the pro lifers.
Every one talks about that better place
As if they've been there
Lets get there already.

If I were to value and hoard my life like gold
I'll still grow old
Death is the only door  with  a
Handle on  it.
Shall I turn
Will we return
Is there something  else

Is there  an elsewhere
Clean and simple light and free
Shipping charges  on delivery
I'll pay my  costs
Fast tracking
The game of living isn't that  entertaining
Interesting or edifying
Waiting for my  number to  be called
Queuing up for death 

How dumb! placid sheep 
Are we
Fodder to  eternity
Why can't I a voyager be
Star  trekking to kingdom come?
The only  reason people condemn suicide
Is because they're truly scared
There's no  afterlife
This is all we've got
Better messy sentient dolls
Than dust under the feet of
Would be Gods...

If this is all I get  seventy  maybe eighty odd years  of  existence
A lifetime
Of experience  choked out  of breath
In the wink of  a cosmic eye
Forgotten forever
Life is negative treasure
Valued because there's nothing
Better.
