The Revealing Pantoum

Pantoum, Near Death Experience

When I was very very young

A new mother experiencing life

Pain visited me with my song still unsung

Now children my song will I play on my fife

 

A new mother experiencing life

Pain in my side to the doctor went

Now children my song will I play on my fife

Right ovary cyst orange size hospital sent

 

Pain in my side to the doctor went

He said that this could cause loss of life

Right ovary cyst orange size hospital sent

Well I went under the operating knife

 

He said that this could cause loss of life

Fo it could rupture at the least bump

Well I went under the operating knife

For them to remove this abnormal lump

 

For it could rupture at the least bump

Asleep totally out on operating table

For them to remove this abnormal lump

Went to the light to visit angel Gabriel

 

Asleep totally out on operating table

Then this light called me away

Went to the Light to visit angel Gabriel

Somewhere over Yonder_I went but didn't stay

 

Then this Light called me away

Peace, peace sweet peace in that place

Somewhere over Yonder_I went but didn't stay

My grandmother sent me back through space

 

Peace, peace sweet peace in that place

Pain visited me with my song still unsung

My grandmother sent me back through space

When I was very, very young

Is this a true story? If it is, wow. If it isn't, still wow--for coming up with it. Such a beautiful flow of a horrid experience. I love that you kept saying: Now children my song will I play on my fife-- kept it smooth and musical. Liked it very much.
