He doesn’t know
the flame burns
above his grave.
Forever
burning on into
the eons of time,
to never dim
after Arlington
becomes a memory,
then passes from
existence.
The flame will
burn on the bleak
and barren ground.
The future creatures
that roam the earth
will sniff and wonder
at the flame,
then skitter off,
forgetting this
eternal flame.
