OR do you just go away ta' stay with 'nuthin ta' say? ashes ta' ashes, dust ta' dust? old metal left ta' rust dirt ta' hurt but when you die does the pain pass ya' by? OR does it stay with you? aw, thatd' be Hell but who's to tell?

There is a Chinese saying. When we've done something wrong on earth, then we will go to hell when we die...yet, we will be punished by a big spank before we come back to re-incarnate into someone else. They say that we will get spank so hard that we will lost all memories of the life we've lived before.

Well, that's just what I heard. Can't remember where I've heard it from.

Wonderful thought-provoking piece, Steve!
