       DEATH OF A SPIRIT

There’s a lot taken for granted, I think
in discussing consciousness, soul and spirit:
that part of beingness conceived as indestructible.

What do we really know, of life, of death,
of that which ceases to function as such in form
assumed to never change?

There is no such thing as 'nothing can'
anything is possible, even the death
of one's own spirit, or life’s not choice!
Even God must have such choice,
to be, or not to be, the question must remain!

What of this beautiful earth,
all the life she brings forth and nurtures?
Could she not also decide
to cease her labors, to end it all?
Who’s to stop her?  The hunter?  The fisherman?
The miner?  The logger?  The Wall Street broker?
The president or general in fake fatigues?
Who else would feel the need?
