Chromosomes must carry
the dusty faces of just one fireman
who co-creates, salvages
every sumptuous moan
every solitary whimper:
must carry the silent sudden
migration to land we’ll
finally know
at least one petal from one rose
of valentine or wedding
should have the déjà vu
of ashes and dust that
fell 'softly on ground zero'
