Porifera
It takes a train to cry
It takes a vertebrate to die
For this we gave up immortality?
For this brief consciousness
Well I been told I had a choice.
I wish I had stayed a sponge
trade offs oblivious immortality or conscious mortality

Re: trade offs
Not true
If I did not have choice
I am still grateful I got to be here
Tears and all
Even death
Bits and pieces of a college educational
Coming back to haunt me.

Sponges may technically be immortal because in undisturbed natural surroundings they never die.

At times I'm shocking pink,
to live forever undisturbed
at the bottom of the great dark sea.
Are sponges social creatures?

The most social of creatures
if they had hands then
one hand would always knows what the other is doing
and they would wash each others backs
I would like to dream about sponge divers tonight.

Re: trade offs oblivious immortality or conscious mortality
Past lives, yes I remember now, I remember every murder, every rape, every lie every theft, every conceit, every cowardly, cruel, dishonest act I must have committed in my past lives. The only thing I forgot was my death and redemption. Nietzsche died for my sins.
Yes I have been here before too, and I keep coming back and each time I remember just in time, who I am. Makes no sense to me either.
But it is a comfort to think I might get a another do over, or maybe that is the hell of it, the eternal return, the absurdity of amor fati.
It is enough to wake the dead
to amuse the bemused
another come on for the conundrum
