He saw the coffee cup
with the inverted pentagram on it
in the Goodwill thrift store
and though he didn’t know the meaning
of the inverted pentagram
he thought it looked cool on the cup
unlike the regular pentagram
he didn’t know the upside down one
was associated with evil
nor did he know the former owner
of the cup was a satanist who
practiced the dark arts
and put an evil spell on
the inverted pentagram cup
so he thought the cup was
a unique find at a great price
until he drank his first cup
of coffee in it and fell asleep
and had a nightmare of
a demon with a goat’s head
right before he was dead

Age 80. Cancer survivor since 3 years ago. Work out 3 times a week. Ride my exercise bike 2 hours a day. Live a solo reclusive life. Retired a year ago from working with the elderly in a nonprofit. Started writing poetry a little over a year ago; most poems I write are fictional but some are not. Spiritual with a permanent spiritual experience. Write poems on many subjects. Always researching for many of my poems and because of my unquenchable thirst for knowledge. After reading and hearing about many near death experiences and death bed visions, I believe death is the ultimate awakening and the relocation of a lifetime. You may believe differently, but you have the right to be wrong -- I'm just messing with you. :-)
