AAM1 - Death of Che
Deviation Actions
Literature Text
Your bones lie silent beneath half-truths and exaggerations,
reaching for fingertips they’ll never feel again,
while your hands wander restless,
aching for wrists and arms.
Yesterday I could not have named your iconic face;
tonight your hands haunt my dreams,
inky from identifying fingerprints,
lonely in the first cold days of autumn.
And what are you now, Che, without hands?
A symbol? The face of a cause?
Are you still only a man?
reaching for fingertips they’ll never feel again,
while your hands wander restless,
aching for wrists and arms.
Yesterday I could not have named your iconic face;
tonight your hands haunt my dreams,
inky from identifying fingerprints,
lonely in the first cold days of autumn.
And what are you now, Che, without hands?
A symbol? The face of a cause?
Are you still only a man?

Topic: Death of Che Guevara
I spent much more time on this than it seems...but as ~epimetheus says, that's what I get for taking 2 years (or more) off.

I like how personal his death, so many years ago, seems to you in this...
And man, I never know what to think of Che...
