Descendant Poem by Laurence Overmire
Descendant
There was a time when the information
Was available
Readily available
But it wasn't deemed important
Or perhaps there were those
Too proud or angry to care
And then they died
Those who had the answers
Disappeared
And now what we need to know
Is lost
No way to retrieve or
Re-construct
We can only live with the not knowing
And try to find a way
To make it relatively
Comfortable.
