Thanks

to

Overnight

Campouts

Years

Spent

Protecting

the

Innocence

of

Youth

Praying

Together

Absently

In the

Firestorms

of

A Life

Lived

Unaware

of

Unseen,

Felt

Barriers

Double Exposure

The

Little

Boy

Squeals

Happily

In

His Daddy’s

Arms

As

He

Is escorted

Into

The court

Room

In chains

Playing

In

The park

Gleefully

With

His

Mom

He

Leans

Forward

In orange

And

Speaks

Into

The

Microphone

Answering,

Unreachable

Drawn Curtains

Yesterday

Passed

Again

Today

Reminding

Me

Of

Past

Thinking

Today

A

Past

Changed

Makes

The

Present

Perfect

Darkness

Everywhere

As

Voices

Scream

Inside

His

Head

Breaking

Hearts

And

Minds,

Seeking

Family,

Unable

To

Part

The

Curtains;

Yet

I see,

Praying

For him

And

Trusting

In Him

Dead Eyes

Cheeks

Flex,

Lips

Parse,

Sitting

Silently

Blinking

Eyes

As

Hands

Wring

And

The Other

Sits

Silently,

Watching

The listless

Dead

Real

As the

Spewed

Nonsense

Golden Moments 

Giggles 

And

As
The other
And

For
The
First
Time

Beautiful Girl

Gray
Eyes
Dulled
With
Her

Trapped
Inside
The

Crying
For
Peace
Of
Soul
Yet
Still
Misunderstanding
The
Present
