Corporal Jigsore Quandary
Identifying the bodies which are decomposed, dismembered, skeletonised pose very serious problems
We've had many cases in this department where a body has been found in pieces, or decomposed
And we've been able to put things together
Yes, the head, the upper part of the body, in a very badly decomposed state
Excised and anatomised
Deviscerated disarray
The torso diverged with pride
Deftly amputated
Evulsed limbs now defunct
The trunk imbrued
Tatty stumps used as lugs
For a chondrin puzzle so quaint
Head and body decollate
A heaving mass so quiescent
Scattered and scrambled
Your teasement grows
A bloody caricature to make whole
A squirming grisly jigsaw
Detrital fragments fit so snug
That missing piece will
Leave you stumped
Totally disassembled
Nicely sliced and diced
A cold mannequin once resembled
Real cranium teaser
Carved from flesh and bone
So mystifying
Battered and diffused
With placating blows
A human jigsaw to make whole
A sequacious pattern
Which once fitted so snug
Joining together each dubious lump
Ravaged disassembly
Neatly cubed and diced
A cold mannequin reassembled
Astute brain teaser
Incorporate flesh and bone
So mortifying
An incessant game
Methodically made
With each cumulative piecing
Of commensated meat
Bi-manual reconstruction
Eldritch problem complete
A convened effigy
A pathological toy
Each chunk rigorously
Inter mortis locking
As you pathogenically rot
Such a perplexing task
To fit the remains in a casket
Uliginous mess so quiescent
An incessant game
Methodically made
With each cumulative piece
Of commensated meat
