Every word of that phrase

Incomprehensible

Not in English or any language

Should those words be allowed to be seen

Together

 

In a pit latrine should not refer

To anything

Nothing should be in a pit latrine

 

Menstrual blood should not be

In a pit latrine

The results of a cheap take out meal

Should not be seen

In a pit latrine

Old news should not be

In a pit latrine

 

Shame should not surround

A pit latrine

Like the lingering smell

Spreading out

And back down

Into deeper shame

 

A thing should not be in a pit latrine

Slipping out of a hand

Or pocket or sleeve

No thing should be in a pit latrine

 

A body should not be

In a pit latrine

A body should not be allowed to slip into those words

A body is was a person

 

If we destroy the words can we destroy the thing?

It should be easy. Like destroying a person.

Cheap cheap it seems.
