Read the poem by Jamaal May The boy decides soldiers can no longer be dead,

so he begins to dig.

Graves are shallow enough that, using only his hands,

he quickly finds a limb

buried without a corpse. He brushes dirt away,

slides the arm into a pocket of overalls.

Until all soldiers are found and placed

in seperate ziplock bags,

his fingers rake soil,

churn the dark earth. His brother

finds him afterwards filling a sink to rinse

the crevices and metal joints, worried

he bathes the plastic infantry too carefully.

As if they had families, As if they were men
