we the fallen rising stars 
of wonder, stars of 
stage and screen 
tests passed with secret notes 
of oak and vanilla and pine 
tar beaten out of 
time 

breathed our last 
measure of devotion 
to the cause 
and effect 
change in the world 
order that sank into 
an immense heart of darkness 
falls upon the land 
of the free and the home of 
the titans
who we no longer

remember
