Yokei

To Remember

-A Survivor Sequence

I.

train
packed-
faces
crammed outward
lost in memory
of her family lost in time

II.

gas
gas
they walk
a slow walk
shower heads glisten
then the sound of her mother's cry

III.

his
hand
reaches,
soldier grabs
her delicate hand
pulls her into comforting arms

IV.

girl,
now
woman
remembers
the stories told new-
year after year disappearing
