A Fond Good-bye, or Not

What is the body, after all?

Why is it subject to recall?

It is where our spirits evolve

and not problems we have to solve.

After its usefulness is gone

our souls and spirits carry on.

We develop fondness for it;

impossible to ignore it.

Can anyone live without it?

In evolving years we doubt it.

As our souls and spirits mature,

we can live without it for sure.

If we never become that sage

we feel betrayed and rant and rage.
