Together Alone
I may not
like it
Most
au contraire
But writing
it true
Your right
to share
Our language
different
Our thoughts
opposed
Yet both
defined
By what
we know
Each word
denotes
What pain
would hide
Unto
ourselves
The meaning
thrives
With couplets
foreign
And quatrains
skewed
Our Muses
strangers
Respect
— on view
**
Inception
Tomorrow freshly baited
— the future reborn
**
The Beury Building
Art deco
majestic
she waits
in the dust
Broad and Erie’s
‘Grande Olde Dame’
her memory
in trust
Of ancient
glories
from the past
stripped down to the bone
Set to rise
with fate reprised
where boyhood visions
— grow
