I: Obi-Wan Kenobi

Blue versus red, bringing back

Memories of when the two sabers were the same,

Of long hours spent training,

Of battles fought side by side,

Of younglings' bodies

Of security holocams that only brought pain

Blue against blue on a sea of lava

Taking a child to "safety"

Watching over him, blaming myself for

His father's fall

In the present

Seeing him and the sister

He doesn't know he has, and the pirates

Flee out of the corner of my eye

They will leave safely

I smile and

Step back.
