We Are Light and Shadow

We are light and shadow,
and something more
that eludes
the camera's eye.
It is what we have
always been,
and we are only now
beginning
to know it.

Seventy-six Years

Seventy-six years
of a particular life
have shaped this body.
There were other bodies
before this,
and will be
still more.
Until?
What?
What is the grand
destination
at which we
are aiming?
We knew, once,
but have
forgotten.

I am not only this body.
I have fought in ancient battles,
and will fight in battles
of the far future.
Now, I will stand
with my sisters
and brothers
for peace.
