(“Field of Dreams - Flanders 1917”, 2020, original oil) HellBent Rumors of war, hard-ons for war Bad dreams and perverse fantasies Driving dirty old men forward into battle. For at least someone to do And have done to them. Just as a real peace is on the horizon The machines of war come to life Preparing the ground for harvest To supply the hawks and crows Their carnage.
