And some survive
To Jacqui
And some survive
         she wrote
         she hoped

She captured in an image
         of hands
         burning
         yearning

         drowning

washed by flame
licked by flood
fed by hunger

   Hot
   tears
   of blood



And some survive
         I read
         I said

to the hands
   waving
   wildly
   static

from the wall
