Grief Box

at the   end   of a life 
the conversion should be complete
{under constant pressure
from a pressurized society}
a diamond in the shape of a shrunken being
should lay at the bottom of a gaudy grief box
accepted back into the cold black hopeless earth 
forgotten depressurized fossilized-soul coal
