Conquering The Death Poem by Varanasi Ramabrahmam

Conquering The Death

Rating: 5.0


Some formulate equations to electromagnetism
Some others equate mass and energy
Some compose poetry and some others music
Some paint, some sculpt, some play games, some reach peaks
Some discover new lands, probe icy atmospheres and cosmic spheres
All this is to conquer death and defeat the inevitable inertness
Attained by this mortal coil
When the breathing ceases;
And thus breathe life permanently
Into life, and become eternal
Timeless and deathless,
And make one’s life fulfilling and worthy

Don't know anything about death. Seems to be aligned with time, as life is. Zennist try to solve this problem by experiencing whatever between two moments. i only know, that if I could be healthy i would like to live forever.

'When a candle burns nothing is lost, ' is a saying, as it undergoes a chemical change as well as a chage in the physical shape. The body came from the elements and goes to the elements ultimately. The body dies, but the Soul never dies. The Soul takes a new body, like the one throwing out a torn shirt and wearing a new shirt. A really thought provoking poem.

Hi Varanasi, Nice verse, reflective and meaningful. Of course, we don't have to conquer death. The dying need to embrace it and those who are left behind need to remember until they join. Frank
