The Sunk Corpse Fallacy

Drain any lake or bog,
On purpose or by drought,
And you’ll be bound to find

Human bones of some kind,
Maybe themselves well-bound,
If humans live nearby

Or ever lived nearby.
The usual suspects—
Ritual sacrifice

And casual murder—
Rank high. Probably not
Suicide. They rarely

Take care to weight themselves
Properly and are found
Floating, regularly.

What does this tell you, Soul
Considering these words?
You don’t like who you are,

What you did. You don’t like
To be found out. You don’t
Understand how depth works.
