COMA!
- Laying
in a semi-coma, senses slowing drifting
- Trying to stop me from slipping away, Doctors are rushing
- Mine eyes are opened but I can no longer see
- Still, is my lifeless body, as my spirit departs from me
-
- Suddenly,
in a dungeon below, endless cries and screams
- Locked in this massive cage, by giant wooden beams
- No one seems to know where they are or what is their fate?
- Shockingly, I realized, I entered Hades gate
-
- Mused,
I am, from what I see, calmness betwixt me
- I see a white robe, sandals and feet, but His face I cannot
see
- He reaches out His nail pierced hand
- Whispering, I will take you to the Promised Land
-
- In
a darkness as black as can be
- Softly he says, take these steps with me
- For in the not too distant Shore
- Darkness shall be no more
-
- I
am returning you to complete your sojourner’s walk
- Spread my words with those you meet, and with whom you talk
- Your spirit has had a taste of Heaven
- Expound my message to all of my children…

On November
6th 1996, in Los Angeles, California, I fell into
a diabetic coma and remained in the coma for six days and
six nights. I awoke on the 7th day. To my
surprise the Doctor’s written opinions on the third day of
my coma, was that I could not possibly come out of the coma.
Like Lazarus, I am living a second life on this earth. This
poem is not about fiction or insanity, but it is about an
enlightenment of spirituality that came from the Almighty,
which I received through unmerited grace. This is just one
of the many events from the countless encounters I had
during the 144 hours of my “out of body” experience.
