Read the poem by Jamaal May
The boy decides soldiers can no longer be dead,
so he begins to dig.
Graves are shallow enough that, using only his hands,
he quickly finds a limb
buried without a corpse. He brushes dirt away,
slides the arm into a pocket of overalls.
Until all soldiers are found and placed
in seperate ziplock bags,
his fingers rake soil,
churn the dark earth. His brother
finds him afterwards filling a sink to rinse
the crevices and metal joints, worried
he bathes the plastic infantry too carefully.
As if they had families, As if they were men
