4/7/2004

Looking
into the eyes
of a survivor
you see that
one eye
is shaped by
all
they have suffered
while
the other reflects
a degree of perspective
and
doing the math
you discover
the ratio between
extinction
and the refusal
to believe
one must die
before one's time
the difference
genetics
geography
and convictions.
