It reminded me of an old poem by cowboy poet, Wally McRea.


REINCARNATION

"What is reincarnation?", a cowboy asked his friend.
His friend replied, "Well, son, it happens when your life has reached it's end.
You see they comb your hair and wash your neck and clean your fingernails,
And they lay you down in a padded box - far away from life's trevails.

Then the box goes in a hole that's been dug into the ground.
And reincarnation starts in when you're planted beneath the mound.
The box melts down just like the clods, and you is inside.
It's then you're just beginnin' your transformation ride.

Well, in a while some rain's gonna come and fall upon the ground
until one day, on your lonely little grave, a little flower will be found.
And say a hoss should wander by and graze upon this flower
that once was you, but now has become a vegetative bower.

That little flower that the hoss done ate up with all his other feed
becomes bone and fat and muscle - essential to the steed.
'Course...some is consumed that he can't use, and so it passes through.
And, finally, it lays there on the ground...this...THING that once was you.

And then say that I should wander by and gaze upon the ground
and wonder....and ponder.....on this....OBJECT that I've found.
Well, it sure makes me think of reincarnation, of life and death and such.
And I ride away concluding.....Slim, you ain't changed all that much.
