chimneys choked with soot
belching flame from the furnace erupts
a funeral pyre for the newly deceased
the long dead and
the freshly defunct
a human candle with a guttering flame
melting fat in the hypocaust
your time has run short, your spark is now
dim
ashes, to the frigid winds, are lost
sizzling skin is burnt to char
corpses broiled to blackened tar
incandescent
skulls explode
carbonized in our sweltering forge
body parts reduced to vapor
causing gases to disgorge
post-burial
cremation
the foulest stiffs we digest
a service rendered out of necessity
we take what we want and burn the rest
embers
scorch the putrid mire
your epitaph is written in fire
eyeballs protrude and pop one by one
as limbs are fused and smelted
ichor runs
the remnants of the graveyard we ignite
cadaverous kindling Cremator sets alight
Burn!!!
scraping the grate
of encrusted slag
molten entrails and adipocere
cauterization, so complete
crumbling flesh and boiling tears
inflammable gore
is consigned to the flames
simmering blood is scorched to coke
hammers pulverise bones and teeth
as cremains fill the air with
smoke
arsonists from the dawn to dusk
transforming you from death to dust
eyeballs protrude and pop one by one
as
limbs are fused and smelted ichor runs
the remnants of the graveyard we ignite
cadaverous kindling Cremator sets alight
