Shadow and Signal: Echo II

ECHO II

There is no audience in exile.
Listeners. Yes.
Some hear,
even less re-member.

I can’t perform for ledgers.
I inscribe,
unsettled silence.

If light falters,
I mark signal.
I mark signal.

What is survived?
Withheld.
The shadow.

But still,
I hold the line.
I hold the line.
If you mirror;
you are none alone.

Father’s Day.
Done.
Again.
Done.

To know her.
To love her.
Only record.
Love.
