ON THE 103RD ANNIVERSARY OF WILFRED OWEN'S DEATH ON NOVEMBER 4TH 1918

One day you are a young man
drifting without a direction,
your future shrouded
in unresolved mist;

dabbling in church,
and university,
and teaching, with poetry
on the side;

and then a lone gunman,
resolving his own mist,
gives you the choice
Paris was given.

And you take it,
and write,
until another man
uses his gun.
