Meer Mortals
I do not want to be
Where people bring their sorrow
Hugged to their breast
As an offering to the deceased
For their peace of mind
I do not want to see
Women crying on bended knee
Men pretending to be brave
Defiant to be
Mortality's slave
Let us bury this pain
With it mortality
For both define
Who we really are
