"Of what use is a memory of facts, if not to serve as an example of good and evil."
Alfred de Vigny French Poet 1797-1863
REMEMBER
We can't erase the images that caused such pain
But if we could, what would be gained?
The difference between pleasure and angst
Would be forever lost in the dust of the past
Just how can we learn to feel?
What would drive our need to heal?
If devastation was so easily swept away
With the receding waters into the bay
