Reincarnation Defined

Inhalation,
exhalation...
When the pattern stops,
a person drops,
and their life is done.
If they get another one,
that's reincarnation.

Haha, that's better than me: Hi. I'm Mickey Mouse, my wife, Betty Boop. / We got caught in a bad karma loop. / We bumped off Popeye, stole his keys. / She was reincarnated as grilled cheese / and I as tomato soup.

Haha, I'm trying to be philosophical when I say there's no shame in not being as effective as Shakespeare in turning a statement of the obvious into poetry.

More energy - you said it! Interesting that you would say that today, as somehow, I am just really dragging.
