Death: A grave situation

The viewers have gone
The curtain is drawn
The play is over
And the journey from the full stop begins.

The ultimate going down is
The actual going up
The alpha of the omega
For the soul to sing ‘eureka’.

Liberty, equality, fraternity
As time leaps from the grave
Into eternity.

The noise ceases
And the music pauses
The self faces
The Cause of all causes.

When all our account is paid
We are to rest laid
With nothing to hide
By God’s rule abide.

Die before you die
Said the wise Prophet
If you can die while living
You can live while dying.

Never ask how
Try it here and now
Truth is a wonderful dove
The hands of Reason above.

I wrote this poem on 21.03.1994. Today I happened to read it again and it sounded good. I thought it better to post it.
