Jude Chukwuemeka Muoneke
Poet's note: This poem is dedicated to all humanity. It's explores the theme of vanity of life. It exposes the journey of the soul after death, and the souls destination which is heaven or hell. One's deed on earth will surely tell his/her last destination. It is true that virtually every home has felt the stings of death. Man is dust and dust all humanity must return. So man needs to reflect on his life to make amends before it is too late.
