Death, and my preference of an unfussed disposal

 
By Stanley Collymore
 
Frankly, studying the appalling mess, both deliberately
and thoughtlessly, that human beings individually
and collectively, have made of this earth we
live on: actions and constant detrimental
activities that have significantly and intrusively
impacted on you and me perplexingly and negatively,
I can’t in my personal situation and plainly those
encompassing the parlous state of my health
stipulations too that I’m confronted with,
think of anything more exceptionally
fitting for me than to be randomly
knocked down, immediately and
fortunately killed by a hearse,
rather suitably occupied by
a dead body, which at the
time of this matter was
on its allotted journey
to a local cemetery
 
Absolutely brilliant that would be, and similarly from my
personal perspective quite superb economically! No
encumbering fuss or costly preparations relative
to myself regarding the usual funeral, or in
specific case what preferably for me will unquestionably be a
cremation. Simply a matter, in relation to this fortuitous
accident involving me, of a rather straightforward
situation of stopping the hearse, collecting my
lifeless body, straightaway carting it off
without all the customary unctuous
and appalling rituals associated
with your average funeral, and once the previously
intended commitment, cemetery-wise, to the
already on board occupant of the hearse
and the incumbent dead body
it was carrying is permanently
over with and done, expeditiously
afterwards, and with not the
slightest fuss embarked
upon, taking my own
dead body to the
receiving oven
of the nearest
crematorium.

Author’s Comments:
Fittingly so Death is the great leveller of every human being and the only agent that unchallenged and irreversibly so can make the same of the privileged scions amongst us and during their life time the same with the detested Plebeians. And that’s what I find so remarkably amenable thoroughly impressive about it. So long live Death! And do carry on with your exciting and punishing work.
