Monuments The points in each life The patterns and memories All the laughter All the tears All the dreams And all the fears Constant flowing voices Sing the mighty moment But cheap as grass The sum of each The embers of the night The ashes of the day The children are coming Give way, give way. 19 September 2001 Al Written October 5th, 2001 © on Oct 04 2001 04:08 PM PST   17 • 0 • 9
