Split-rail fences, stark and grey
Rim the Bull Run battlefield
Where Confederates that day
Forced the Union line to yield.
Cannon still command the hill
By the chiseled monument
Where some of those who came to kill
Sleep…dank earth their tent.

Shakespeare said, “make
pieces of the beast and his
confederates”
My parents voted
today - filling out and then
casting their ballots.
It was a pleasing
privilege - even as an
anxious observer.
Their two small darts at
the heart of the snarling beast.
Saints let them strike true.
Split-rail fences, stark and grey
Rim the Bull Run battlefield
Where Confederates that day
Forced the Union line to yield.
Cannon still command the hill
By the chiseled monument
Where some of those who came to kill
Sleep…dank earth their tent.
(alternate last line:
Stayed…while others went.)
