    FUNERAL BLUES by W. H. Auden Stop all the clocks‚ cut off the telephone‚  Prevent the dogs from barking with a juicy bone‚  Silence the pianos and with muffled drum  Bring out the coffin‚ let the mourners come. Let aeroplanes circle moaning overhead  Scribbling on the sky the message He Is Dead‚  Put crepe bows round the white necks of the public doves‚  Let the traffic policemen wear black cotton gloves. He was my North‚ My South‚ my East and West‚  My working week and my Sunday rest
