Stone

Again I dreamed of being in Paris last night. I could not see me, but I could see the city, unchanged. All the stone walls and gray white stone of heavy buildings that rose long ago from the minds of builders and the quarries of stone. Again I looked for a telephone. I wanted to call for someone I knew long ago. Call to warn them that things can happen. Even in Paris.

That is a great poem about a horrible subject. I wrote poems after the shooting in the nightclub Pulse in Orlando, with that sense of terror and sadness and anger the same time, combined with helplessness.... Welcome to PoetrySoup.
