At millennial zombie skool, practice makes perfect
medium-to-big-box items
and at graduation there is a rush of delight
when they open your box
and you get to climb out and selfie yourself.
A mystical religious society
contributes funding,
and this is only one of the many ways
the modern funeral industry
is tirelessly at work to profit from your body.
