Mr Death Poem by Oluokun Adewale

You wipe away
parents and offsprings
without considering
worth or wealth


You brought
thorns and tears
without considering
power or post


You perform duty
without considering
season or situation


Yet you shouted
I am the judge of
justice


You come like a gentleman
on the highway
without a knock or notice


My throne is elevated
you roar!
I am Mr Death
you all must pay my debt....


Who cares!
says one of the deceased son.
