Reenactment
Looking back
to bring it forward...
What made an era
timeless for
a new generation?
Thinking of a time
from yesteryear
when blue and grey
fought a war
that shed blood.
Friend against friend,
Brother against brother,
Such gore and sacrifice
for something each
believe in.
Whether or not
they were right
or wrong.
Yet they fought
until the end.
Now we live
in a time
where slavery
no longer exists.
Except...

I went to my first reenactment dance and got to see women dressed in hoop skirts and men dressed in blue and grey. It was kind of surreal, like going through a time machine, with the exception of some anachronisms like myself that did not dress for the era.
