Did you see us there?

In the moments before 

Your frame hung limp

Did you see us?

Did you see us there, clinging?

In our times of desperation

Pain and longing

Through time and place 

We come

To the illuminated point

Etched in the dark heave

Of our broken universe

Waifish pilgrims

One by one we travel

If only in our minds

Kneel there

In the blood soaked shadow

Of outstretched wings

And hold fast until

We too fill with splinters

We try to see you there

Did you see us?
