These bones lie still
in graves dug out of
Pity.
The bones they shake
in shallow holes
meant to cover up
Dirty secrets
They shutter and break
Bones made of brittle
My bones lie still
in shallow graves
meant for another
These bones
they lie on solid ground
as the earth crumbles
swallowing them whole.

I'm not sure what to say about this one. I like the "Pity" line. I understood it as a good double use of the word. Otherwise, if I understood all proper, it is a good reflection about being ephemeral. Keep up the awesome!
