The Post-Death Rituals Poem by Rm. Shanmugam Chettiar

The Post-Death Rituals



Death means cessation of vibration,
And not any liberation of soul.
The body disintegrates to elements
By breaking down as food to other lives.
Post-death propitiatory rituals
Make no sense to the departed ones,
Like songs to the deaf and dance to the blind,
Save some solace to the performers.
