For Michael, for All.
I pray: three soldiers
watch over me as I descend the black gash. In this crowded place I am alone. Each panel reflects a time of pain of anger of hopelessness ...I wonder if I will see light again of lonliness or descend for eternity. of betrayal. Rushing memories fill my ears I hear no one else. ...hostile ground fire The thousands walking by, the mourners the spectators the bewildered, are the ghosts. I am so afraid. Two panels away I try to make deals ...too late with God ...too late to let us trade places, to see my name ...oh, please, if you would only live instead of yours. ...too late... One panel away I am alone ...wailing, afraid After 25 years of knowing what is true ...I hope for I don't want a lie... to come to this point in eternity. I don't want this to be our history. ...I am alone. Your name is there. I reach to the wall to cover it ...erase it and am drawn inside. ...your name Your name is the safe place for me to leave ...don't leave me the betrayal ...regrets to inform you... the lonliness ...an enemy missile... the hopelessness ...to the head... the anger ...oh Michael, NO... the pain. ...not your beautiful face... It adds to the weight of the Granite. The hole in my soul ...missiled through is replaced by a simple black gash. Peace flows within and without. I am proud In a world that still whispers "Viet Nam". I feel pride in the name that I honor this day. ...and always I am proud of the descent that I made alone ...turn around, bright eyes. and I ascend into light and life in the company of thousands. I love you Mike. Your sister, Jane For Mike, for All who made it. For all who didn't. My love and devotion.
