Edward Said – in further memory
By Richard Falk
In Further Memory of Edward Said
Always, always
That voice
remains
is gone
needed
What he gave
we miss
we need
we want
Our loss
his loss
remains
an echo
Sunsets bright
that shine
yet soon
depart
Unlike waves
that beat
on shore
remains
Relentless
is loss
his gift
our hope
Remembering
our loss
our tears
his hopes
Honor such a loss
clear eyes
brave words
courage
