AfterLife

Written for a poetry challenge. A view of the afterlife from the inside.

The dizzying spin of Earthbound madness fades away in a final breath of bliss

A final kiss

Kaleidoscope memories slipping through to oblivion as awareness changes hope

Awake now

Happy in the silent calm of void

Lucid as the dust of ignorance slips

Ashes choking long in the mouth

as fears disappear

Kinetic ecstasy unfolding into the growing glow of the great beyond

Intrinsic to the flow of forever here and cool

Now is the logic of stars

Now is the timeless daydream of infinite possibilities

Now is forever at a glance and anywhere on a whisper

Now is waiting for you to come along................

"Now is the logic of stars" is a pretty evocative line. It carries the emotion of the poem in an understandable way. We cannot truly feel any of the given ecstasies, but I believe that I have a slight notion on what the logic of the stars might be, especially coddled in the surrounding lines.
The bit about the ashes still being in the mouth after awakening is a bit hazy for me, but I got through it with what was to be understood from the transformation.
