MATERIAL WITNESS
� Lary ([email protected])
She glides along our days in ghostly flight;
a silver wraith, with softly beating wings.
She hovers patiently -- not with delight,
but harnessed to a weight that duty brings.
Her voice is clear, her eyesight keen; she dwells
in echelons where shadows cannot hide.
She prods us; points the way where virtue spells
a well-marked course upon the swelling tide.
The pounding of the waves does not disperse
her echo nor obstruct her steady aim.
Yet some will try to crush her heart; they'll curse
the tremor of her touch, her very name.
But those who'd turn from Conscience should beware,
for on the Day of Judgment, she'll be there.
