 "The unicorn is a lonely, solitary creature that symbolizes hope."
--from Ally McBeal
Time Traveler
unicorn
alone in a space
where nothing but
the wind calls its name
somewhat sadly even
like a recognition in the black
of restless night
listening to tortured Souls
clashing to touch it
but it lives unfelt
disbursing long enough
to
encounter further
separate Sorrows
in this Life
that it travels
the unicorn never hears its name
except in mistaken Thunder
in wrenching, stormy passing
 a sound so raw in its aching
so poignantly profound
that when it answers back
nothing is there to hear it Echo
nothing acknowledges its answer on the
lips of frozen wind
carried through space and time
a Voice known perhaps once
in another Era of its Weeping
in search still
of its own
silent Cry.
