The Celestial Magistrate -Lord of Death

Humanity in general is forever scared of him And try as far as possible to runaway from him Belief or disbelief will never ever dither him In carrying out duties strictly assigned to him. He is called by many names in different faiths However he operates regardless of people’s faith At the appointed hour he throws the noose right Snatch the life system without any pity or plight. He is said to be upright in performing his duty There is absolutely no error or any discrepancy He in his wisdom assigns proper place to all That depends on the individual’s merit, overall. Innumerable folklores are woven around him Some depicting him as noble and venerable Yet others describe him as ruthless and evil But he performs his obligations without fail. Whether one reveres him or loathes and spurns Appointment with him is unavoidable by turns When he arrives to take action against the chosen There is neither bail nor surety for release known.
