BARRICADE

Stones bleed the wear of harsh surrender,

Autopsy of our love
...our love was a corpse
left to rot in the gutter
festered wounds seeping rot

...Naked and Revealed,

If I have them on me?

While presidents speak of honor, culture, and dedication,
And their words are echoes...

Not a calm, deep river, lush with fish and plants, flowing by gently and powerfully...but
