Who Dunnit?

Carrying thoughts over
from one life to the next
like flying near light speed
through one big squeeze
to the next Bang

Instead we look at a statue
bronze person on a horse
was that me
did I kill those indigenes
build a republic on their bones?
reading biographies
obsessively
a nurse, saving thousands
financier, endowing libraries
someone who died in bed
halfway through the last novel
he ever read
puzzled frown
