The Timepiece- Todd Beamer's Watch Poem by John F. McCullagh
The Timepiece- Todd Beamer's Watch
The crystal face is missing from this witness to the deed.
It doesn't have its' seconds hand, there is no longer need.
The date displays "11". That it always will
to remind us of the ways in which fanaticism kills.
I look upon Todd Beamer's watch and experience a chill,
realizing that while Time truly flies, it also can stand still.
