Notes About The Poem

Losing

Our hearts like hammers tripping 
into silent sunbeams slipping,
 we moved, my team and I, 
into time’s immortal gripping.
mourning the quiet passing throngs, 
wafting in the wordless void.
No inspiration given, 
wrapped within precision’s ribbon,
leaving paper cuts so thin 
to bleed our daily loss out loud.
homeward bound, so slowly, 
with our heads reluctant bowed.
