Was Reincarnating

When I die, I want to return
as a participle.

I know, you may wonder
“why not a Proper Noun?”

My wife would have thought
“at least an action verb.”

And my guru had hoped
for a state of being verb.

But a participle
blends action with change,

and usually comes
with the state of being.
