Consuming Grief |
| Mourners gather around the fire |
| To honor those passed away |
| Consanguines have the duty |
| To dissect, prepare, decorate |
| Affines take the burden to devour the flesh |
| Of the ones that they held dear within their hearts |
| Familiar body pieces that may have once caressed |
| Now to be served for consumption |
| As they have to submit |
| The beloved body |
| For dismemberment |
| Grief intensifies |
| A fevered chorus of keening and crying |
| Ritual method to keep spirit from lingering |
| Several days of decay |
| Made the corpse so putrid |
| Stench so overwhelming |
| Legs and arms |
| Dead and neck |
| Placed on sticks |
| Reluctantly devoured |
| Eaters of the dead |
| Heart and liver wrapped in leaves to be roasted |
| Genitals and intestines thrown onto the fire |
| Mournful feast continues |
| Throughout the night |
| Until the flesh is entirely |
| Cannibalized |
| Pathways erased |
| Scenery soon altered to avoid memories of the deceased |
| House burnt to the ground |
| Belongings destroyed |
| Names to never be |
| Spoken again |
