What’s The Difference

 
maybe there really
isn’t
much difference

between
being alive and
being dead

are there doubts
about the
difference?

maybe we decided
for convenience’s sake
to insist

there is a difference

as we write
we begin living in
another world

is that world
less real
than this one?

is this world
within the world
of another author?

is that author
resident of yet
another world?

is death simply
another author’s
version of life?

are dreams
visits to
another world?

and who
wrote
that story…
