The Soul's Overcoat - part 2

So they took you by the hand
And they gently sat you down
They said you need to listen carefully
To what we tell you now...

Your body was an overcoat
To warm your soul, it's purpose
But you no longer need it now
You've rised above Earth's surface

At first you didn't understand,
Just what was being said
You were struggling to comprehend
That you were really dead

Their words were softly spoken
As they told you what to do
A job was now available
They were offering it to you

An angel to guard those below
Whilst you started pastures new
But you had to look back at your life
Before the interview

Still bewildered and confused
It started sinking in
Your life on earth was one stage
Stage two was to begin...
