Anadiplosis Of Life Poem by EZEKIEL MAU

Anadiplosis Of Life

Rating: 3.0


What is man?
but a tool to fulfil the heavens.
Heaven that is so far from his reach
Reaching for him is out of his mind
Mind that is so frail and careful
Careful what you wish for
For what is man? But human
Human till the day he dies
Die! ! For such is life
Is life to live and die?
Die! For grave just begun life
Life is too short
That's why it's measured in span

Speculation on life, if it has any purpose and its meanings are fun to read. Thanks, Ekerendu Peace
