The same sun is in the sky ...



I ring Richard up from South Beach - 

He's with Jimmy in the quiet sunlit cemetery - 

Later he'll wear his brother's homburg and long dark overcoat - 

He'll say my name is Hans Scholl and I talk to you from my grave

I look out at the yachts moored just offshore - 

The calm sea is a pale blue - 

I think of that February day - 

The same sun is in the sky - 

Perhaps I breath the same air, passed from mouth to mouth -

I can say the same words - 

Long live Freedom !

Es lebe Freiheit !
