Death
July 27, 2011
How quickly life can leave your body.
You’re skin becomes cold
and your intestines rot
from the inside out.
Your lips become blue
and your body pale.
You’re placed into a casket
just your size
and slipped underground.
You are buried
six feet under old dirt
and musty earthworms that swim
in and out of the air holes that
surround your decomposing body.
