Death And Writing

I already found the investment I made. 
In notebooks and I keep them in stock. 
Cooking up rough binding for later. 
And maybe trying to become a musical chair. 

Can’t waits. 
It cost 37 dollars for a boat ride I don’t remember. 
Cactus poking hopelessness into the scape. 
I already typed up a million dollars out of nowhere, laughing. 

I already found out that I died.
They tried to tell me in a withering chain of events. 
I still find myself typing oddball things. 
And I think the internet exists in weird places like this. 

I already found myself typing. 
The afterlife is a lot like earth except for the stuff you can’t ignore. 
Flowers are already dead but no pollen is flying around ever. 
The pencil-scape land and maybe an investment in a computer.

I kept notebooks in stock too. 
Pencil leads last forever if you try.
