When The Body Dies: Living Cells Live On Poem by Terence George Craddock

When The Body Dies: Living Cells Live On



do you not know when the body dies?
when heart stops beating pumping blood
when brain stops thinking commanding body
cells for a time are not dead are still alive...

science was only describing processes of life?
science states when the heart stops we are dead
brain not thinking heart not beating we are dead
for reasons of law for medical science we are dead...

but there are still cells alive in our bodies?
our bodies are still full of billions billions of cells
billions billions of cells are still living alive
living cells alive for awhile after death are not life...
