Tears

••  ••

Amid some fantasy !

• • • •

The story !

•

When it is written

It will not contain

Sandals

Over the rubble

The rubble

Filled with corpses

The footsteps

Thru the ruined buildings

Nor the dead babies

••

It will be a story

Told by smiling faces

••

But these faces though smiling

Will possess no beauty

••

Tears
Beautiful faces

••

Tears

••

Some where

Else

••

On the faces of those with

                                   Sandals                  over the rubble
                   footsteps
                                         thru the ruined buildings

••

Tears
Faces of beauty
