Day: March 29, 2026

On many YouTube videos
far too often

I see women hiking and
camping alone.

Nobody should be in the
wilderness alone

vulnerable and without
someone to help

if an accident happens
to them.

Many have died alone
like that

when accidents gradually
became fatal.

Worse is if an animal
or a human predator

stalks them and takes their
lives

when they are all alone
unarmed and easy prey.

Dead men tell no tales it’s true,
but the clinically dead for only
moments tell many tales

a life review where they see
the good and not so good
things they did in their lives

not punitive but for greater
spiritual growth

the tunnel and the white light
maybe a gateway to a
glimpse of the heavens

for some what seems the
Apex of the afterlife

unconditional love beyond words
beyond imagination

that makes the living world
seem dreamlike and unreal
by comparison they say

a place they never want to leave
that they call their real home

Of course, they weren’t completely
dead, so no telling if their tales
were true

or if when they are completely dead
their tales will prove untrue.

Bob Boyd

Brian’s friend Mark had been on a haunted
houses tour.

He raved about it to Brian, but Brian thought
Mark seemed a little off from his usual self.

There was a strange look in his eyes
and the thought

he has a haunted look about him appeared
in Brian’s mind.

Mark wanted Brian to join him for another
haunted houses tour,

but Brian always felt if you mess with ghosts,
they will mess with you and he declined to go.

Brian never saw Mark after his second
haunted houses tour.

Mark had gone inexplicably mad and leaped off
a skyscraper to his death.
