Curtail the infection risk
Diminish the festering decay
Ignite a petrol soaked rag

To keep putrefaction at bay

Charcoaled extremities snap

Roasted epidermis cracks

Count the many advantages

Of flambe sterilization
Diminished viscosity and less pungent emanations


Incinerated dearly departed
Smouldering mortal remains


Whatever extremities are in reach, I purposely set alight
The defunct flesh antisepticised
Singing my cuffs and inhaling fumes


An oxidizing theme
A coruscating concerto


Curtailing the inferno to no avail
The corpses blazing in a fuming arrayal

The point of calcination rapidly reached
My work place a pathological rotisserie


Mortuary barbequed specials leaking ignited grease
Sizzling streams of melted flab spreading with unsettling speed


The blackened flame-ridden morgue
Ravaged by fetid oxidation
