ODE TO DEATH 1

in #poetry7 years ago (edited)

My first post and it's about death? Don't be scared, just want to create some meditation.
I'm Nifemi Mojeed by name, a legally minded active person,serious and unserious being at the same time.
Voila

Death! The Grim Reaper
The great messenger of the Lord
Death! The greatest bailiff ever in creature
Some say you are sacred,
I mean God-made
While some say you are profane,
I say human-made

Death, the bailiff of the Lord,
We borrowed ourselves,
We are being borrowed,
We are borrowing ourselves,
We never belong to ourselves,
We never belong to anybody but Lord.
We never want to return ourselves,
Even, Lord never espoused suicide,
And so;
Death, the bailiff is involved

Death! Death!! Death!!!
My eyes are brimmed with tears
My mind is full of questions,
Death, I need to prosecute you,
To ask you why?
To sue you in the court of my mind;
To ask you why you have done all these?

Why do you prefer the placids to the petulants?
The vivacious to the ferocious?
Why do you abandon a fiend for a friend,
The mendacious for the veracious?
WHY???
Huh! You say you are executing Lord’s message.
