Death Is Not One's Last Station Anytime, Anywhere, And Everywhere - Poem by MOHAMMAD SKATI

Death Is Not One's Last Station Anytime, Anywhere, And Everywhere -



No one ever will be able to take with him or with her
Anything or everything
One's own anytime
Including one's whole possessions
Anywhere and everywhere
Simply because that's
The way with things
In our life...
The only thing a dead person
Takes with him or
With her are one's good deeds or
Bad deeds...
It is one's dark grave that awaits
Everyone to be in there
Alone and for ever and ever...
No one can take a relative,
A friend,
A wife, and
Any companion
Simply because no one will accept
To play that role at all...
Death is absolutely inevitable, but
A lot of people try to avoid it...
Either one's grave becomes
A place for what is good or
A place for what is bad, but
It depends...
Worms are the only friends that will
prey on the dead person's body in there...
That solitary grave is the place
For everyone of us anytime...
Our deeds are good companions
That will accompany us if
They are good, but
If they are bad, then
We will bad companions over there...
Another life awaits all of us
In one's grave, so
Are we ready to take that trip?
