58,202 names engraved on a black reflective surface
58,202 names JOHN H ANDERSON JR. on the west end
58,202 names slowly piling up to the middle
58,202 names 1959 to 1975
58,202 names
DALE R BUIS meets RICHARD VANDE GEER
at a 121-degree angle of eternity
58,202 names the Alpha and the Omega
58,202 names receding back down
58,202 names JESSIE C ALBA on the east end
58,202 names “Who took the time to count them all?”
58,202 names “Daddy, this is a sad wall.”
