Our Sons, All

Background:

Our Sons, All

They arrive from the
blue-green currents of
the womb,
fast beating a blinding pure pulse.
And as quickly,
the hourglass turns --
black sands of time
relentless
through red life,
white innocence
tinged to black awareness,
tainted by black knowledge,
timed by black death --
Someone's sons.
My son.
Our sons, all.
