Twin Brothers
gouache on acid free card 86 cm x 81 cm

Twin brothers lie slain in the streets of New York

A baby, with her first teetering steps, knocks over a picture of her mother
a mother she will never know

A young boy catches his first fly ball to the roaring cheer of the crowd
while a seat sits empty in the stands

A young bride walks down a long, long aisle
on the arm of an uncle who fills in for her Dad
A young man re-reads an old love letter from his wife
a young woman who disappeared with their unborn child

An elderly couple sits with empty thoughts
thoughts of the grandchildren that will never be

A family gathers to celebrate the birth day of Christ
their first Christmas without their Mom

Twin brothers lie slain in the streets of New York

Twin brothers, symbolizing
life and death
hope and despair

Twin brothers, symbolizing
goodness and evil
innocence and guilt

Twin brothers, symbolizing
war and peace
love and hate

Twin brothers lie slain in the streets of New York
