The Morgue Attendant
It stinks in here. It really does.
The dead rot so fast despite the cold.
They’re here for reasons, not always because
they just died because they were old.
The autopsies are really gross
and the reasons why they died are bad.
One of them took an overdose
just because he felt sad.
The autopsies reveal the cause
of death. It’s really hard to do.
Seeing the dead every day makes you pause
and wonder when it will be you.
The fat leaks out of the deceased
after they’ve been there several days.
I can’t say that I’m pleased
about the morgue’s ways.
There’s sometimes a lot of blood
or a mutilated murder case.
Sometime all that’s left is decomposed crud
that stinks up the place.
Shit happens to us all eventually.
It’ll happen to you too.
It will happen to me.
Get a clue.
