INVITATION TO THE AFTERLIFE

once you were

tormented in 3D

now you’re called

saved from everything

eyes washed clean

as the sky after rain

they say there’s

love in the afterlife

beautiful garments

a blue glazed heaven

your tears in a jar

pickled and precious

a long long table

with seats for everyone

the rings of saturn

are jasper and onyx

the wings of mercury

grow from your shoulders

the Pleiades sit

beside you and chatter

your name’s on the poster

you are the guest here

you may even be

the bride at the wedding
