Stone Axe Dismemberment

Limbless torso stumps ground down

The dull stone blade breaks and smashes

Archaic tools collide with ball joints and knee caps

Necks and shoulders are separated

With the roughly assembled

Surgical apparatus

The last of our humanity lives in the stone axe

Created to separate souls from bodies

Our last knowledge used to fabricate a murderous tool

Wielded by the most powerful

To be buried in the enemy
