    Changes are more likely your corpse will be pressed into a sludge, distilled and then burned in motors.

    Don’t you mean “to become an accessory to cultural theft and appropriation”? High likelihood it’s Britain you’re off to.

    What if my bones were in a museum,
    Where aliens paid good money to see ’em?
    And suppose that they’d put me together all wrong,
    Sticking bones on to bones where they didn’t belong!

    Imagine phalanges, pelvis, and spine
    Welded to mandibles that once had been mine!
    With each misassemblage, the error compounded,
    The aliens would draw back in terror, astounded!

    Their textbooks would show me in grim illustration,
    The most hideous thing ever seen in creation!
    The museum would commission a model in plaster
    Of ME, to be called, “Evolution’s Disaster”!

    And paleontologists there would debate
    Dozens of theories to help postulate
    How man survived for those thousands of years
    With teeth-covered arms growing out of his ears!

    Oh, I hope that I’m never in such manner displayed,
    No matter HOW much to see me the aliens paid.
