Looking up death
It's only healthy to communicate with death,
to pay occasional brief visits
and associate on friendly terms,
go through this utter darkness now and then
like passing through a dreadful sauna,
which, if you come out again,
will only be refreshing.
Likewise, if you come back out alive
from looking up the black hole of despair
of meeting death and being friends with him,
you'll just feel better afterwards,
like Christ after his crucifixion and his resurrection.
It can't be any worse than that.
