Explanation:

"Counting Small-boned Bodies" by Robert Bly is a poem of just ten lines written in free verse. The speaker starts with the line "Let's count the bodies over again", urging the readers to remember the deceased. The whole poem is a satire of the government's casual approach or attitude to those killed in the Vietnam war. The government had released the death count almost everyday, making it seem as if dying is nothing serious. He's proposing that if only the bodies were smaller, then it'll be possible to "make a whole plain white with skulls in the moonlight", or get "a whole year's kill in front of us on a desk" or even "fit a body into a finger-ring for a keepsake forever".
