Vanquished souls not prayed over!

Leftovers!


 


 


Leftovers


Tell a story


Of the vanquished


 


 


Some of the privileged


Of bones arranged in rows


Others scattered about


 


Bones tell a story


Of the weak


And the strong


 


 


Some, we pray for their souls


Others we clear the dinner table


Like wolves at a feast


Yet, they do not pray

Before I read this, I thought [based on your title] that this was about the abundance of food left after a thanksgiving meal.

Bones cannot pray for themselves, it is up to us to pray that God have mercy on their souls.

God bless you. Kathy

Again, you compare man with our helpless animal friends. It is a fine metaphor and you've done a good job.
