BODIES

When they go down

they are just bodies

in a box. They are

bodies and nothing

else. They are not

what they were, but

bodies disappearing

into the earth. They

do not exist, but are

bodies nonetheless.

Somewhere they are.

Going down. Burying

the bodies in earth.

Who are they? Bodies

that moved. In bodies

is all that mattered

when they were. 
The bodies are sunk.

The bodies in earth.
The bodies are not us.
