Helena Hughes, Tibetan Buddhist, tells me that there are three stages in death.
The first is white, like passing through a thick but porous wall.
The second stage is red, the third is black, and then you're finished, ready for the next event.
I'm glad she has a roadmap, but I don't feel the need for one myself.
I've trust enough in all that's happened in my life, the unexpected love and gentleness that rushes in to fill the arid spaces in my heart, the way the city, glow, fills up the sky above the river, making it seem less than night.

I said, today, and meant it.
I hope that death will lift me by the hair like an angel in a Hebrew myth, snatch me with the strength of sleep's embrace, and gently set me down where I'm supposed to be in just the right place.

But he's not fun.
This is sometimes there's a little bit of fun and shade.
Like when he's like, yeah,
