Beyond Life and Death

There is further beyond than
   death or life ...
   It's another dimension
   that tells us: "still
   we are alive" !
   Death is just detention
   of the senses ...
   decomposition of tissues ...
   Disposal of disguises ...
    Life is a clothing
    that we wear here,
    but that then 
    it's  not up to us ...
    Life is the a  passenger 
    illusion, the line
    tenuous between soot
    and the meat ...
    We feel, but actually
    we realize nothing ...
    We will only find out when
    remove the clothes.
    Then we will notice that there is 
    neither life nor death,
    but only the omnipresent verb ...!

I agree with this " Life is a clothing that we wear here," - it is PERFECTLY said, and my soul understands completely as the soul never dies.
