If consciousness dies
is that all there is
or does some higher state
reimagine what was
When consciousness dies
will birth reoccur
no longer indentured
to time and its spurs
If consciousness dies
do rainbows of light
take over our essence
transcending our sight
When consciousness dies
is confusion bereft
as reference get buried
—and prescience resets

Assuming that your consciousness is the only consciousness is foolish, consciousness never dies,
it can only continue through all consciousness that is connected… ehh well that’s my take. Good poem
Thanks, it was written as a question because how do you know it never dies?
There's a difference between fact and belief.
If consciousness dies in the forest, does anyone hear it die? Consciousness is hard to fathom, and almost as hard to spell. Colorful take on the questions.
Thanks J.
divide conscious from intuition
fraction thought within dreams
multiply feelings by perspective
then calculate
worth, in deliberating what comes after
before we fathom, what's needed in our now...
consciousness is a thread, connecting
all that we are, to all we were
and may yet still become..
it's etymology, a derivative of humanity's zeal
for sharing stories
well then, dear Poet
let's live life's
worthy of tomorrow's story's
and let that be understanding enough
for us
(a Great write!
I imagine in another consciousness
sat at a subtle cafe
maybe near Piazza della Signora
in beautiful Florence
we could have a questing conversation
so diversely resplendent
we would make the universe jealous...
lol)
I'm buying at that Cafe'
My favorite of your prescient poetic lines ...
"let's live life's
worthy of tomorrow's story's"
cheers, my kind friend
and most treasured Poet
