Life Is Death Poem by Imafidon Mac Henry

Life Is Death

Rating: 5.0


life is a bird with broken wings
that cannot fly into the sky

life is a barren land
where men float
their boat in flooded
tears of grief

life is a grave yard
where expensive treasures lie

life is foolishness
where sold destinies
are bought for peanuts

life is a broken glass cup
dumped in the trash heap

life is death
where men's heads meet.

Indeed, life may sound fine and lovely but ultimately signifies nothing - vanity upon vanity. An insightful piece of poetry, well articulated and nicely brought forth with conviction. Thanks for sharing.
