No Accounting by Dawn Richerson Tuesday, October 08, 2002 Share Print Save Become a Fan “No accounting for what happened here,” you said to my chagrin. So despicable, so cowardly, I thought, so very like a man. You shrugged your slumping shoulders, shook off responsibility. Deep, true eyes went vacant, died. Moral courage collapsed as did civility. And so it went. And so it goes. And I am left to journey on alone. Heavy load you piled on me, but it’s a load I’ll carry until you come back home.
