To Die Before You Die
To Die Before You Die
We are a constant unfolding,
and each layer of ourselves
is a new creation, a new beginning,
the way the tree surrenders
to death in winter,
and allows itself to emerge
in a new configuration,
a fresh formulation
in spring,
as if its prior self
had never existed.
