Church bench marks found and lost, boulders laid out in rows, and a ghost sign I had never noticed.

An hour
A cemetery we could not read, a clerk who gave us an hour, and a generation recovered.
The pigeon
A fortress never taken, Germans and Russians buried side by side, and a bird in the canal.
Small print
Breakfast, a statue nobody reads, an obelisk that commemorates nothing, and a plaque on a corner.
Replica
Back out after lunch, still in Warsaw, reading walls in a city that labels its own copies.
What is missing
Warsaw on foot. Almost none of it survived, and what is left is there to show you what is not.
