“Minor Poem” by Bill Knott

The only response
to a child’s grave is
to lie down before it and play dead

I included the poem instead of just the link because the link takes you to the whole book, and I wanted to save you confusion.  It’s a good book.  He’s a really undersung writer.  ["Undersung and overhung," he wrote in a note to me.]
