[ CC ] There's a certain slant of morbidity

tabeled behind curtain for autopsy    
Enabled, I'm giddy, soon in swoon  
n even topsy turvy as if heavy bosomed    
   
Warm, curled up with rigored spined book    
Probed, each nook - now cold body of work    
Such my depravity, virtually on all fours    
entering, gleaning from each organed cavity    
   
meaning from sheltered half-life of yours    
every clue regarding its (c)hastened demise -   
one's poetry career dearly departing    
much too early from this world, Emily
