Lost in
the soles of these
dust-covered boots
rubber-thick
holding bent toes
worn cotton
weakening ankles
until
unseen faces lifted
echoed
cracked in song
whispered shadowed strength
bolstered by brothers
beneath
a life left behind
and a promise
of sunlit sand
found standing solidly
cracked leather
waiting
to rise
to a surface, known
but new
