So much history is yet truly to be filmed, so many stories, so many acts of heroism, of despair and pivotal moments throughout the times have yet to make it to the screen for it be acknowledged as kind of Universal truth, yet it seems the more we know, the more we have lost, the less there is defining us in the present day.

Silence.

There is a silence between us

that reflects the way I think of you,

the way that you easily slipped into the guise

of the creature in black, the despot with red

insignia cross who bellowed orders,

wishing to not be only obeyed

but to make me suffer with open wound

everywhere I went

and everywhere you wouldn’t take me.

 

I held out for so long, my resistance total, and yet

from the fist initial meeting, you tried to control me,

the detour you took me upon,
