Battery of Bibles

If you die it is advised to be quiet
It is best to have someone by your side
To touch your hand, to comb your hair
If you have hair it is even better
To have warm socks placed on your feet
By a loved one who will remember you
It is special as you slip into the future 

Speaking from experience this is the truth

If you die and you are a robot
It is suggested to arrest your circuitry
Keep a battery of bibles by your side
Keep them alive in hopes of a resurrection
If not, there is always the hope of electric 
In the after life of power as suggested
