The Darkness At Noon

The Darkness at Noon Taps - echo hollowly over the grey stones, acrid odor of gunpowder stings all memory, flag, creased, folded, presented. A last salute. A darkness at noon. John G. Lawless 4/22/2014

Knowing someone who passed away from a gun violence , this really portrays my feelings. It is hard hitting and final. Great work.
