A Very Pleasant Feeling

Remember when I almost died

from sitting in a chair that folded me in half

cutting off my air?

I was zooming down a tunnel toward a brilliant light

when I heard a frightened voice, it was my wife, 

saying:

Come Back! Are you Alright?

I caught myself and took a sudden breath

and was restored to life.

If Suzi had not been there I would not have paused.

The light was just in sight.

I remember how the ocean roared inside my head

as I was zooming down that tunnel

It was a very pleasant feeling
and I wasn't really dead.
