What In Tarnation


What in tarnation is reincarnation Could we come back as a piece of toast? Or do you think that death is just that The end, it's over, adios? Some get passionate about the subject But nobody knows for certain When we finally take our very last breath Is it really the final curtain? Here's my humble opinion on the subject It's over when the fat lady sings But I'm open to other ideas on the subject I wouldn't mind another fling Guess this old guy is much too realistic Watching shows bout the universe on TV Can't believe how infinitesimal we are As insignificant as a little old flea So now you know my thoughts on the subject Hope we can still all be friends Maybe one day we'll find out the answer When we finally come to the end

...ah yes....after life....now-time simply means all things change and recycle.... whats 'perceivable' depends on existence form...a 'form/being' is a just a perception, an appearance-product... ....a product of 'existent' transcendental root systems of possibilities of being or not; roots labelled as mathematical constants'.....pi, phi, e, etc....they are the 'being' of the logics of what does and/or does not exist......(was that picture ok)...stan

...numbers are like words....short form descriptive, symbolic of 'time as a reality 'picture'.....for writers, painters, etc.... equations can read as poems......sometimes

If that is your perception, then so be it! We will all know the answer one day! I don't have the answer nor do you we can only speculate my friend! Have a good rest of day...
