The bandage over David Bowie's eyes in the videos made shortly before his death symbolizes the fact that he does not know what comes next.
the question unasked
the answer, I admit, yes
I fear what comes next
who I am all comes apart
not that I was together

notes if you need 'em
I'm a devout agnostic. I've seen some shit that leads me to believe that the personality continues to exist following the death of the body, but I can't say it with 100% certainty. It's not the kind of experiment you can recreate in a lab.
I'm not religious. Religion is a human construct, and much of the time I feel that it is harmful. I believe that there are probably higher powers. I am not about to worship any of them that are so egotistical as to demand worship.
It would be easier if I could faithfully believe in a higher power that would take me to heaven when my soul passed from my body, but I simply cannot.
I suppose the statement that I fear death is incorrect. I don't actually fear death. What I fear is oblivion. That is the uncensored truth.
Another truth is the fact that I adore David Bowie. Not in a romantic sense. I respect him too much for that sort of nonsense. I love him as an artist and a wonderful human being who changed the world for the better. I think he was an angel, perhaps literally.
