In the manual for the dismantling
Of the delicate body from the soul
If you can't bear to read the text
Skip to the illustrations in chapter 3
Where a blameless gown is sketched
Unbuttoning a shattered bride
Next to the diagram of a second option
A bandage ripped off all at once
No time for the hurt to happen
Unmasking the wounded soul
As the real source of hunger and thirst
Look to the final pages if you haven't had enough
They're all in musical notation
And the beautiful body is humming along
