| Gene Sprague "The Bridge" |
93 Minutes
"He strode along the Golden Gate Bridge
a long-haired figure clad all in black
He stood there for a long time
and stood straight up on the railing
Long hair flying and arms outstretched
he fell backward into the bay
Witness said they had no idea
what he would do that day
Did his spirit gradually surrender?
Did his demons eventually win?
What was the final deciding factor
that convinced him to jump in?
Was it the misty fog rolling through
the interplay of clouds and light
Did he believe that God would catch him
as he leapt or in mid-flight?
Back and forth for 93 minutes
as the boats in the bay kept sailing
then Gene Sprague made his decision
and stood straight up on the railing."
then turned and walked on back
Back and forth for 93 minutes
as the boats in the bay kept sailing

Es tan sencillo... pero tan difícil. Valiente es aquél que lo hace precisamente en ése momento en el que realiza la acción, aún habiendo pensando, y con satisfacción lo logra. Cobarde es el que amenaza con hacerlo y sólo lo deja ahí por miedo y remordimiento. Ser humano es el que lo ha pensado alguna vez... y maestro... es el que lo ha mostrado y sigue vivo... a pesar de no estar aquí.
