Painting on the death of the American journalist by Deborah S ReganPainting on the death of the American journalist, Daniel Pearl,
Whose newspaper gag conceals what he is trying to say,
hanging in a darkly lit corner by string and back light
the only resonance is death, novel's plots hang on this one clothes-line
grays of justice bleach the red walls, splotched
with the wounded subjectivity of children
They must be taught not to expect the world
To share happenings, permutations of reality
