"luck is a burden" by julianne le not enough time has passed for every lost life/soul/memory to be honored how many more memorials/essays/altars before we seal the hurt away? there is not a saigon there is not a saigon that belongs to my family when a city falls, forced into rubble, where do all the people go? easy-- american-made, star-studded motion pictures; under the radar; wallet-sized photos; university history lectures; graves of water and debris; lists, lists, and lists of the martyred; they move on and on, never leaving our blood, our thoughts --stuck in the wind
