A story of

Remembering those

Who have passed

But remain 

In story which

Is the same  

Now as then...

I hear the flags whisper
Stiffened by a free wind
Blowing across a memory
Of friendship, of valor
Of sacrifice
Of freedom

A vampire known as Good Prince Harry
Set his fangs on the Virgin Mary
He took one bite
And saw the light
Combusting in the cemetery

Shadows only remain
Where life stood its ground
Far above their air
Its devastation burned down

Don´t get lured by them 
They are upper middle class people 
Who want to run your revolution.

Our morticians are thanking their god
For a year where they all earned a wad
Though some were burnt
Many more weren't
Still, their best work lies under the sod!

It Happened On a Misty Morning

The passage of time has not changed anything 
Neither has it erased all that has been
I go down memory lane
I'm swathed by loss and pain

Memorial Day 
mother nature’s reckoning 
is gain worth such loss
de-constructing life with limb
Collision course toward ourselves
