Notes About The Poem
For bite size poem contest

Can you dig it?



Dig...black soil,stone. earth worms wiggle, decayed bones
Dig... scatter seeds there, sprouting, searching sun and air
Dig ...to hide our dead, six feet under, body bed
Dig...shovel and spade, flowers grow from planted pain
Dig...out of this hole, skin so pale and Icy cold
Dig...deep down inside, reveal secrets graveyards hide
