She flashed, piercing, upon the screen and I,
though fastened in my suit and steeled 
to speak apostasy,  
stood riddled, my notes a sudden blur.  
Posing after the War, she beamed outward joy.
Unbound by...

His organization taken apart,
he found himself hiding in a safe house,
paranoid that Jones would learn he was there,
so crazed he made sure all the lights were doused,
he did not even bring along his spouse,

Wandering through a meadow of steel
I see the cold field outstretch.

Somewhere in the wilderness,
Among the barren deserts,

Clogged thus with defiance
My weary feet
Tethered to...

She healed...
