Drowned and Rotten - Anasarca

I' m walking along a river

Enjoying harmony of nature

The water' s shining bright

Suddenly my eyes notice

Human clothing inside

While I realize

The human corpse of a man

I try to pull him out

Try to get his arm

I want to bring him near

I' m falling back

In my hands the rotten flesh

Inside a sleeve —

Torn of the stinking corpse

Drowned and Rotten

He must have been inside the water

For more than seven weeks…

Disgusting to see how flesh detaches of the bones

Terrible smell, my stomach turns around

Vomiting into the water

Leaving the corpse inside

Drowned and Rotten
