Exhume to investigate
Reflect on corpse criteria
The perfect specimen, suitably fresh
Untouched by disfiguring trauma
The grave robbing business
A lucrative offence
Appropriate subjects in shortage
Mucopurulent stiffs refused
Gaseous corpses discharging pus
Unacceptable for medical purpose
Create your own cadaver
Deliver the recently dead
Defile and disinter the freshly deceased
Inadequate to meet the growing needs
Furtively smother the sacrificial mark
A fine cadaver to pride the anatomy slab
A lethal business venture
Anatomical counterfeiting
A murderous vocation
Cadavers fermented to gunk
Entirely inappropriate
Likewise the crushed and gored remains
Of bloody industrial mishaps
Efficient body snatchers
Reap the harvest of death's mailing
Defile and disinter the freshly deceased
Inadequate to meet the growing needs
Furtively smother the sacrificial mark
A fine cadaver to pride the anatomy slab
