The doctors slice into the truth:
a hospital bed has again become an excavation site.
His parents dig up his belongings before he is old enough to understand ownership,
and do away with them.
A memory quilt that does not cover both the mother and father is sewn.
Their bed is as the whole Earth,
but West has been removed.
We tried making coffins to preserve such broken worlds,
but now we just have distant galaxies.
