A Woman Sanitized

Even after death

a woman’s body

torn into indecipherable pieces 

of dry clay crystalized 

by browned disease; 

a cover of white hands

to hold down screams 

of cut open stomachs

gutted further down the vaginal 

opening– reproductive organs withering. 

A woman’s body 

even after death 

sanitized in Black.
