After: Gray and Gold by John Rogers Cox, 1943.
War roars above
~ a hemisphere
gone coal black,
blasted with skin
~ned ash, soot
~scores the sky
and rubble roils; blood can not travel on the
wind. Lines cross, posts cross, peace cru~
cified. Food thought, wry humor displayed
in fields of grain from sea to sea. Commun~
nication cut-off
deafened by the
omnipresent gale.
Fenced in safety
a jest. The gold~
en fuel, isolation
will not save us.
War roars above
~ a hemisphere
gone coal black
blasted with skin
~ned ash, soot
scores the sky
and rubble roils
Blood can not
travel the wind.
