I wonder about who performed the first recorded autopsy,
The one who had to look at Caesar’s cadaver.
Did his hands shake or tremble as he cut?
Did his mind wander to how another blade pierced the emperor?
Did he plan out how he’d announce the news to the public,
That their leader was struck down by those closest to him?
Did he wear gloves, or were his hands too covered in blood?
When his sweat dripped down onto Caesar, did he apologize?
Did he look down at Caesar, and know what would become of
Rome, or did he simply shake his head and push forth?
I wonder about the man who dissected Caesar.
