When the time comes

Apparently, I’m told
there is a short distance
between death and the afterlife.

I wonder how many people
are looking forward to
catching up with
a few lost souls?

Looking forward to
a new means of transport
“ beam me up Scotty!”

And to think
ninety two percent
of our body
has the same elements
as those shining stars above.

So maybe I’ll become
a star after all
for all to see.
