SIR NICHOLAS WINTON PASSES

When all life stops
you recollect a life
of saving children
from a vast furnace
at the entrance of camps
of the third Reich
when a finger stamps you
on your right hand
like the skinny girl
with the red eye
in silence
even now
before our faces
now when time
is at a standstill
we honor your
long memorable destiny.
