Seven Stars Shining Down

Poem Artwork

written after space shuttle Colubmia crashed

Seven stars falling from the sky.
I could hear lonely eagle cry
blue day
Columbia
never made it home.

Mourning song, slow, hauntingly clear.
Wings clipped, balding eagle did fear
similar fate, weight of
freedom’s sacrifice.

Seven souls sound hope from on high.
We commemorate ties that bind
here on earth, remember
those severed too soon.

Call to endeavor on, explore
echoes and sacred harmonies
spill down like heaven’s hope,
healing hearts on earth.

Borderline Anti-Memory PastBook by Dr. Patrick ODougherty

The Borderline Anti-Memory PastBook asks questions a diary does not ask and raises the questions to dialectics and answers them in a way a memory work does not answer questions.
