Response to Northography #262 – A Hanging in Mankato, Minnesota

BEYOND WORDS

What to say to the image
let alone the story and the history.

Here in the new year we reflect back
upon our deeds and misdeeds

upon that which defines and builds
the core we take with us.

On that day, truth and bravery
hung heavy in the winter air.
