beneath the corpse that's beneath the floorboards,
in an enchanted wardrobe,
under Yertle the Turtle.
Some Shakespearean places for a mass grave:
at the end of every fucking tragedy,
dressed as women onstage,
buried amid Kenneth Branagh's ego.
Some poetic, American places for a mass grave:
at the end of the road less traveled,
dragged through the negro streets at dawn looking for an angry fix,
in the icebox to probably save for breakfast.
