You sit thrilled
by storms arising
taking great pleasure
from chocolate
and drinking green tea
from a ceremonial cup
From CNN comes
the revealing scene
of a double-amputee
of the Iraqi War
reported as
focused, fast, ambitious
It matters not in the least
what you think of war
so long as you see
you owe a duty
to see that this man
be not forgotten
Or at his side that woman
in her deliberate
contemplation
motivated alone
by the antonym
of ambition
Silent
Endless
Relief
His name's John
Fernandez and hers
Kristi Fernandez
and you owe them
this duty
