The Man Who Fell Into Eternity
It may be one of the few images
that last as long as the world has eyes
- no shorter, no longer -
the man who fell and was uniquely caught
amid so many others, on 9/11
Which of us, bearing eventually to examine
those photos with an open mind
and open heart
can make a leap of faith
and invert that photo,
of a man rising
to the occasion?
