Rewincarnated.
Reincarnation? Ah, if only so...
would we remember could we leave a sign,
about self's death which happened... ages ago,
and visit our past self's grave, like a shrine?
Perhaps in a past life we were merely a flea
jumping round sucking up to make ends meet
and then when reincarnated to...me,
find fleas didn't know much to start with, shee'eet!
Though, in some archeological dig,
rummaging amongst old sarcophagi
the aged professor does a creaky jig
as he, translates the hieroglyphs as
" Hi,
My name is Rew, " and " hey, how do you do "
" Now you gonna die for dogging my tomb... "

Author's Note
maybe we've all been reincarnated already
perhaps we only get one bite of that cherry.
maybe lots of stuff, maybe I'm not really here
or only half here and half somewhere else or
only half right but all left mutter...mutter....
Someone's doing a comp bout reincarnation and it set
me off with this then, I found I'd already posted one it's a good thing
electronic paper is so cheap, innit, so you can see how I was doing it
I'm the reincarnation of someone long long ago I was gonna go back
to the palaeolithic days and my me then leave a message for my me now
I might've left a message on some cave wall and itsnot been deciphered yet...

is reincarnation just one mood dying and another one taking over?
are we becoming someone else every week?
are we remembering our other self(s) when we write about fictitious characters?
life is and can be complicated depending on our belief i guess.

Hi Dragonblood thanks for the visit
and comment. I don't really have any
beliefs one way or another. I guess I just
got bored with this one and fiddled with it.
