And in Death all shall be made equal. <br />Great men powers they all shall be lost, <br />Like a grain of sand on seashore. <br />When their breathe are at last and their last breathe drawn, <br />They shall lay helpless like an eclipsed sun. <br />Iron pillars in their hearts shall be broken, <br />And grudge unforgiven shall now be forgotten. <br />Bite them hard they shall not bark back; <br />And in Death all shall be made equal. <br /> <br />And in Death all shall be made equal. <br />Lines of Beauty shall be undone; <br />By the hands of time, their curves worn. <br />Scalene triangles of the face shall be made even; <br />In the earth, they who once dwelt in heaven. <br />Though they be perfumed they shall rot; <br />Though the flesh be coated with gold, theirs shall rust. <br />Though candles be lighted their eyes shall be dark; <br />And in Death all shall be made equal. <br /> <br />And in Death all shall be made equal. <br />No more tears from the weary eyes leave, <br />Or does piercing crow disturb the sleep. <br />Where the sky was once limited may beyond the sky be the limit <br />Of a dream dark and gloom and no less vivid. <br />Though they seem beaten and broken on eart, <br />Silently their snores of peace resonates through the dirt. <br />Rest in the peace till the peace rest no more; <br />And in Death all shall be made equal.<br /><br />okoye charles<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/and-in-death-all-shall-be-made-equal/
