There is a sentry that stands ready beside me
ready to sound alarm in the dead of night
an electronic scream of the extended agony of others
shattering me from my rest
and I will grope to quell the noise
and strain to hear a distant voice
that shakes me into full cognizance
for there has been a death in the family
and I found myself suddenly older.
