Imagine the moment of death.
The moment of crossover.
The cessation of life.
The other side.
You shed your earthly body
and wrap yourself in your
immortal you.
You must accept as a small child
to be of the kingdom.
Your life passes before you
backwards
from death to birth.
In a flash.
or
drawn out moment by moment.
The pain received. The pain given.
Purgatory?
The river Styx.
The five rivers
Acheron,
the river of woe.
Cocytus,
the river of lamentations.
Phlegethon,
the river of fire.
Lethe,
the river of forgetfulness.
And Styx,
the river of hate.
Left behind. Crossed.
A guide awaits you.
Charon to give a name,
a guardian angel
an old friend
protecting you from birth
to death.
Guide
Across the threshold.
A guarded threshold,
Cerberus to give a name.
No return.
Guardian of the threshold.
Ancient Greek Myth
Shadows on the wall
The other side the true reality
This side
left behind
Maya
Sanskrit word for
That which is not.
False
Inherit the world
lose your soul
What price for Maya
You can’t even take a burnt match
with you
across the river Styx
Only your immortal you
and what you’ve become
in your journey
to the river.
