Death Poem by Lekan Malik

Lives extermination is your mission.
Destroyer of souls’ vision.
You are not after anybody’s wealth.
Yet, your threat is felt all over the earth.
You are active at nights and mornings.
The atmosphere is filled with wailings and mournings.
Death, can you stop your killings?
Who’s next is now everybody’s feelings.
The household you had tragically visited
Regrets, your visitation was unknowingly granted.
Killer of man, woman, young and old,
Full of confidence, fearless and bold.
You are well known, though invisible.
Humanity avoids you, but death, you are inevitable.
