There is no poetry
so actually
we didn’t drown him
just threw his ashy remains
out over the all absorbing sea
not knowing what else to do
except for singing a little song
which we couldn’t do properly
which we couldn’t do
which we couldn’t
not even a song
he would like
just a picture of the scene
for the singing was no good
at all
