WORDS FOR THE ABANDONED (excerpts)
 
 If you were important, you would be somewhere
 else. All the important people have flown away.
 
 If you were blessed as they, you, too
 would vanish.
 
 If you can hear me now, you've been appointed
 no one to worry about—hiding in a cellar,
 
 coughing in a clinic, crouching in what, yesterday,
 could have been a laboratory, could have been a school.
 
 Choices were made. You weren't counted.
 
 			JOSEPH GASTIGER
