The Afterlife

A poem in which a man claims to have seen the end of the world and somehow come back and left a book which can be read, should not lay claim also to a preface or an introduction. It should be the most important thing ever written, and should be treated as such by everyone who takes care of himself. But, of course, I do not claim to have seen everything in that way; it's not the final word on what comes after death. The book is rather personal, and relates only to what I saw. So it has perhaps only a limited interest for others. Nevertheless, I suppose that it might also offer some enjoyment to peole who like poetry, rhymes, and the like; and who pay some attention to their own higher destiny in the eternal world.
