For WEG
someday,
i’ll take your hand
and we’ll go see the old barracks.
the steam that blurred your vision
will no more be
and the now muddied walkway
once forced cleaned
by power washers
will reflect rainbows
in puddle pockets.
you’ll wonder out loud
how you got there
in the first place
and kick a big old
man’s shoe out of
the scattered litter.
it’ll roll under the
now boarded and splintered
look out that once sprayed
bullets and gas.
you’ll note the daisies.
we’ll see a hundred things
you scratched up inside
in silence
now out.
your deepened eyes
will remember
and nodding
we’ll leave it all behind,
noting the new moon.
