Amidst
Whispers of ‘rest in peace’
vibrating entire cosmos
a departed soul watching
curiously from the above
a body below
surrounded by wailing people
mournfully
spelling out all the words
available in praise
staunch opponents
eulogising white deeds
ignoring the black ones
wiping crocodile tears
and laughing in sleeves
friends, foes and family
come to remember
a departed soul
which
wishes to be the whole
but for its KARMAS.
Like this too, even though the syntax is sometimes very `original`, well done.

Great lines! A work of an intricate mind. Witty, thought provoking, clear, focused and factual. A brilliant creation Tribhawan. Thanks for sharing and do remain enriched.
Dear sir, you have so nicely and astutely inscribed the events after death. Beautiful poem really. Lately I congratulated you for this poem selected as the member poem of the day. Thank u very much.
Do you let threats of eternal torment in Hell dominate your life? There is a way out. God is a just God. What did God take away from you that He didn't give you, therefore, being a just God, that He owes you back? He owes you back your previous eternal nonexistence. At your Judgement before Him, if you want it, ask for your eternal nonexistence back. God, being a just God, will give you your eternal nonexistence back. Then, you will never suffer again.
