No Body
Nothing showing save your eyes
youve wrapped yourself in linen lies
medicated strips because
you need to hide behind the gauze
Fluids oozing through the cracks
fill the scene with livid tracks
now your body too has gone
melted out upon the stone
nothing left now to be true
just a shell
wrapped up like you.
