On Being Dead

So far it is wonderfully quiet
And being beautifully absolved
Is a hoot!
However
I think I shall miss
Being naughty.

Everyone I meet
Is too full of goodness.
Perhaps I'm in the
Wrong place.

A place of nothing but sweetness and quiet isn't my idea of a heaven either, such salvation seems an incredibly boring eternal reward for a life generally well-lived but not without its naughty moments, which is the best I think anyone can say at the end.

Right place, wrong crowd. Look over here, behind that towering cumulus. You'll find kindred spirits (and enough naughty to keep you in smiles for a good long time).

full of goodness maybe because no one fears you anymore
