Absolution

From the lesson of Hadith, "Child's heaven lies under his mother's feet".

Put your Sin, all into your Coffin.
 
Now, a free bird, you are
From the hell a gusty air
Detach you Handcuffs and
 
Put your Sin, all into your Coffin.
 
Forget all– No complaints any more,
Nightmare won’t knock your door
Leave the hopeless ghost behind and
 
Put your Sin, all into your Coffin.
 
“Whose Request?”
Question moves round and round
The Angels tend to confound,
You too think, “How it could be?”
Bloody Money, Meager Gold?
Fifty Two Cards, Wine Glass?
Rings for Luck fishing?
Land’s Deed? Today’s missing!
Call girl or Virgin beauty?
Whose request gets priority?
Stealing Art, Telling Lie?
For Disable, Pain cry?
Single day single prayer?
Loaf donation to a street friar?
An animal on sacrifice Eid?
Adoption to an orphan breed?
 
“Whose Request?”, “Whose Request?
For you, we arranged no big quest.
At Holy Mecca, penance need?
Though The Lord was cruelly unpleased.
No one said in your favor,
The prophets claim tough judicator.
 
However, tonight, you win gratification,
Mother blessed for your Absolution.
 
Put your Sin, all into your Coffin.
Mother feet hold your heaven; see what you have not seen.

(2008)

Once a man was used to doing sins that was giving him pleasure. Neither murdering nor jeopardizing someone, he was used to doing vile practice that were prohibited in society, religion, and law. He lost his Mother in his childhood. He helped his mother as long as he got her. Never did he become as a cause for his mother’s pain. One day that man died. He knew he was very bad and he deserve Hell. However, a decision made by the almighty surprised the Angels.
