Hopeful Death

I want a hopeful death.
a death where you don’t have to be afraid 
of renewal.

turn me into a turnip.
toss me out the window.
give me a good, growing adventure.

I want to be immortal. 
I want to live forever.
I want to die forever. 

in sage.
in an open kitchen.
in a lover's stomach. 

Find me hopeful at the end.
that this is not the end.
but just the beginning of existence.
