Body Worlds  
- John Newmark

Real live dead people
on display in the UK.
Pregnant woman with

womb exposed, foetus
revealed for gawking tourists.
Athletes posed in

action.  Goalkeeper,
cyclist, basketball player.
Is it surprising

the curator of
this ghoulish museum's German?
Is Madame Tussaud's

now passe?  Missing
wax statues of Arafat
now considered tame.

(Not sure if there is any official name for this poetic form, but each
stanza is a haiku)
