Poetry Everywhere: "Facing It" by Yusef Komunyakaa

[808RisingSun]

This poem brought me to tears the first time I read it... Very powerful. You can almost feel his pain when he reads it. Brilliant and stunning.

[IamAiramI]

the image in this of the wall consuming him and pulling him in... the battle over these emotions and the way facing the memorial is like re-entering that time for him, so much that he first sees a horrific image but then realizes its just a woman brushing a boy's hair...

this piece amazes, astounds, and teaches ...
