A poem by Bob...

In times of fate we hesitate

and ponder on what is real,

though we know in life

that death must come

causing wounds that cannot heal.

These wounds are intended not for the dead

but for the living to endure,

while the victims of fate may rest in peace

as their souls are cleansed and pure.
