Poetry: Life or death

by J. Morah

What Comes Next

I held the towel over my face, staring out into nothing but blackness and oblivion, and thought:

This is what it might be like to die

Then the towel falls and the sudden light glares bright white:

Or maybe this

And then I remember the hate and mistrust and wrong choices as colour floods back into vision.

Maybe I already died
