Afterlife After Death
Crazy cross sections, immortal artist's work
people look, as people museum pieces lurk
freeze dried lively looking, but dead
these people buried above ground instead
interesting picture perfect poses
another lifelong history door closes
ventricular veins, eye popping scene
visible organs, stomach, liver and spleen
intriguing stories, different and unique
now on display for you to critique
selected into a specialized class
preserved in a stance, behind the glass
human mummified lives, image preservation
these souls, are on a permanent vacation
some ask for defrosting returns
some, just have no future concerns
time expired models, filling rooms
famous now in their original naked costumes
sad or happy in their last breathe?
Before their afterlife after death
