Skeletal

Peeling flesh
Strip by strip
Shedding muscle
Strand by strand
Casting out organs
Veins
Arterial matter
In tandem
Down to the bone
Hosing the skeleton clean
To name each piece individually
Pointing a knotty finger at that rib
Calling it what it is
Two Hundred and Five to Go
Visceral
Real
The infrastructure
The center
Support system naked
Truth.
