Reporting Death

Reporting of death
As reporting
Of life
Happens
In the first person

Reporting of death
As reporting
Of birth
Happens
In the second person

Death, as life —
Is real — actual
Only
In experience —
Knowable

Death, as birth —
Is unreal — conceptual
Only
In mind —
Unknowable

Death — of the concept
Of self
Is simultaneously death
Of conceptual
Death — birth

That lands neither
Here, nor
Beyond
