Writing from home

Like a thousand chimes at midnight[1]

A reminder

what Great is[2]

Showing their color[3]

Have they heard?[4]

Have they been afraid?[5]

To what end?

Is this,

the Marathon we heralded[6]

Without a chance
without being asked
Still they ask
They insist
Declaim “this”1

Before the mountain man2
before the voices3
before three stars4
came us5
