What stood in our yard were like demons
outside of time. One had a rock in his mouth,
another a tree branch

& the garden, town, village

From above we saw:
A ruined shape
We turned to [colorless]
The sea was like the sky a long, long chain that tethered everything
At last, at last
To hunger and terror
The sea was like the sky a long, long chain that tethered everything
At last, at last
To hunger and terror
Salami and buckwheat
We’ll stand between death and its shining ideals
We’ll stand between death and its shining ideals
We’ll fatten from hunger and light the whole earth
With our comrades’ debris
We’ll be grim set on living
We’ll bury the headquarters schools and the baths
And the water main
Oh strange person
We’ll be grim set on living
We’ll bury the headquarters schools and the baths
And the water main
Oh strange person
Oh person in a vacuum
We with our canons and spaceships were children
