Christmas, Game Night


Pictures for Ben and Tom. We played only your music during the party, and when your voices and instruments spoke in lulls in the action, we spoke about how we wished you were here too.

Here lies a dead mouse,

lifted from hiding by Jasmine the cat,

killed out of sport,

left to become jerky on the hot cement.

Less respect than ugly ankles at a fashion show.


Here lies a dead mouse,

found by four eight-year olds,

bored with a sharp stick.

Stabbed it through the hips.

Less respect than a long haired boy at a Mormon church.


Discussion of death, diseases,

why not touch dead things?

Somber kids repenting of curiosity,

a consensus to tribute this dead mouse’s life with

a shrine


Here lies a dead mouse,

buried under stubborn dirt,

sharp pine needles defending the body,

batteries scattered on top giving energy to the deceased,

a cross built with a sharp stick,

orange shadow across the dirt,

a cardboard sign announcing

“Here Lies a Dead Mouse”

with four arrows pointing down.

A little respect.
