Immutabilities (Wowliam Blake)
He who smiles upon a shark
shall ever bear the fish’s mark
a dog thrown cruelly from a van
shall never be the friend of man
rant not at the little duck
heaven’s lore is in his cluck
on your mat befriend the cat
lest you should behold the rat
he who fights and hath not fled
is the one who droppeth dead
I refrain from further pain
of thoughts mundane
