Western mountains
when I am carried away
which mist will I ride?
-Issa 1813
That picture says without words the thousands of names that need to be spoken. May we never forget.
To die such a death after having a reasonably good life till that moment. Seriously… Potential swept away without even an ounce of dignity, fodder for the fish. Yet, we have to keep living – in the knowledge that we will all meet our own death. But not like that, no human should ever have to confront that kind of death.
A haunting picture.
My heart aches for the living and the dead.
Thank you for the reminder of what still is. May they All be found.
stellium: perfect.
