John Doe

yes

Body parts hanging in trees

Swaying gently in light breeze

Parts of hands and bits of knees

All meant as food to please

 

Campfire’s bright warm glow

Neath the branches, down below

Where the ghouls and goblins go

For the remains of poor John Doe

[Samuel Dickens]

Methinks you're channeling E. Poe with this ode to John Doe. Poor guy--you could have at least stuck his parts in a piñata before hanging him from that tree. This one made me grin, friend.

This shows that great minds think alike
I was just reading your black cat thingy
Hope all is well
