Rehearsal
It was a day without rain.
But the clouds?
Well, they will always be
be there,
reminding us not to look
up, I suppose.
It was a day without wind.
Flags redundant posturing
whispered final obscenities
prior to a sentence of
superfluousness.
It was a day without fear.
Dins of the past echoed,
what was, a forgotten silence.
Only, a day after yesterday.
Yet, it arrived with all the
amnesia, of the one, before!
A poem for Armistice Day.
11 November 1918/2018.
