Bereavement may feel like a curse,
But I think it is somewhat perverse
For a guy to persist
In shaking his fist
To drive Satan out of the hearse.

Some folk have a covetous feeling
Which drives them to anger or stealing.
On the counter, some stores
Have a note which implores:
"We value respect and fair dealing".

When priests and archbishops held sway
And ordered our life's winding way,
The belief was widespread
That when we were dead
The Devil might make us his prey.

The Emperor Bonaparte said:
"The age of the monarchs is dead!
Away with their scourge –
Let freedom emerge!
Now, please put the crown on my head".

Sweet memories lodge in the brain
Far longer than those that cause pain,
Or so I would hope.
Some people take dope,
For the latter kind drive you insane.

PENDULUM – PERCEPTION
