Can you go to the wall
without a tear?
reflection of honor
in black

gash in ground
in heart
no, deeper

for the endless roll
goes on and on
in sacrifice

and always there
a mother, a brother
in arms

touching, touching,
touching

as if a finger tip
can bring back time
or warm a cold black
stone

What can you say? The finger tip on stone says it all. Another trip into the other world just over the line.

Stolen for Hannah. Wish you'd visit some time.
