The Fallen....

whose voice?
whose shadow?
whose footprints blown...

lost to the sands of indifference?
whose cry?
whose hurt?

whose human need raw?
whose face without feature?
whose hands stick out of the grave?

whose blood?
whose sweat?
whose love given and gone....

bitter in the mouths
of the living?
