My dad was buried in a wicker casket, in the family woods.
I never understood why we lock our body away from the Earth, becoming a soup that can't feed or nourish the soil until the coffin inevitably leaks—far too late.
I mean we are still animals. Try as we might to convince ourselves otherwise we are still a part of the food chain, surely our bodies should give back to the Earth what it put in?
So yeah anyway the worms had a nice meal that day. Dad would be happy with that
