special olympics 12/5/2008

the water sentinal
over years temperature
days drought
prides struggle

disabled effort
tragidy only for onlookers
triumph a wingless bird
15th birthday

we guard what we can
expose our good hands
and signal our star
falsify our identities
to ourselves

to the TV's exterior
