Notes About The Poem

@ copyright Aneela Ali.

Amen.

 

Evil Graves

Stay away from evil graves that crave attention
While smouldering in pain and grief 
For all pain they caused
Wanting to sell their sins for a look or a stare at their grave 
Ready to suck you in the game of heaven and hell
Enticing  you from afar with a wisp of curiosity 
"Who lies there ?"

Looking for their chance to lure you in
Hoping for a early release from hell
Deceiving all that go by
Not really repenting their sins
By the laws of hell , hoping to make a pass 
To swap their sins to whomever passes by
Child ,woman or man
Don't sign your name or accept a gift in a dream
No one cares in hell

Evil Graves know how it's done
So don't stare at everyone's graves
Or you'll feel troubled and don't know why
You don't know who lies there
Evil graves in hell
