Photographer Unknown

Wrap me in a shroud- a flannel one stamped with dogs and maybe a cat or two

don’t put me in  box, don’t line my grave with marble or stone

don’t bury me deep, leave me in a shallow grave,

that way I won’t have to work so hard when I claw my way back out again.

You made me work hard for it the last time you buried me.

Remember? You buried me deep.

Was that necessary? Was it really?
