A Chance 4 A Macabre
The still water tempted me to walk on it
The gentle breeze whispered in my ear
Rushing me to make a decision
My thinking became irrational
And the water became solid
I was so sure
I broke out in a sprint
Feet first I dived
The dry bones of death
Hugged me with a wet embrace
“Life may seem to flee in a moment, but when the mind is freed of the veil of ignorance and illusion that comes between the mind and the truth, life and death are only opposite sides of the same coin—water welling from the fire.”
