“At the Vietnam Memorial”

By George Bilgere

The last time I saw Paul Castle


it was printed in gold on the wall
above the showers in the boys’
locker room, next to the school
record for the mile. I don’t recall
his time, but the year was 1968
and I can look across the infield
of memory to see him on the track,
legs flashing, body bending slightly
beyond the pack of runners at his back.

He couldn’t spare a word for me,


two years younger, junior varsity,
and hardly worth the waste of breath.
He owned the hallways, a cool blonde
at his side, and aimed his interests
further down the line than we could guess.

Now, reading the name again,


I see us standing in the showers,
naked kids beneath his larger,
comprehensive force—the ones who trail

obscurely, in the wake of the swift,


like my shadow on this gleaming wall.

Purpose:
George metaphor between his friend and Meursault and Raymond, they were best friend;
they were protecting each other as George protecting his friend at the battle field.
