not to worry

 .

I died from minerality and turned vegetable

and from vegetableness I died and then turned animal.

I died from animality and became a man.

Then why fear disappearance by death?

Next time I die

I'll sprout wings like those of angels;

then, after that, soaring higher than mere angels -

what you cannot imagine -

that's what I'll be.
