11:59pm SA time. This period of night promotes contemplation.
I've been listening to some death metal by a Korean metal band called Battle's Eve. They sing "Death is here". It seems unlikely. Is death an existential experience? What is death? Does it exist as a graspable sentient thing, or is it just a word for that ending of life that we don't understand? The death metalists seem to celebrate it, even yearn for it, as if it were an event worth pursuing with energy, yet they didn't enter into their own pursuit.
Death is inevitable. Is it the only inevitability? Or do taxes take an equal share in that?
Death is often portrayed as spooky and undesirable, but what is it in its essence that causes so many to avoid even discussion of it? It seems these death metalists make some ceremony of the fact that people fear it, and hope to sell records to the peurile ignoramuses that pay for pop. I'm not convinced that it is so easy to court.
I've been in the vicinity any number of times and death has always seemed to deny me its bliss. Is it a fatalistic event, or does it simply happen with no meaning or explanation? Your death is ahead, so think on it for now and post your mortal misgivings on this concept.
