Anne Waldman in Court Green
flowers of war
after L.N.
(sad you
come low
to this
bent
just
so
- error they
make on
all the polis
Tigris flow?
he & he
& one
who supplicated
& cried
O my nation
was still abused
heads roll
limbs like stems
(young)
history teaches
what?
I fear this war
will be long and painful
and who
pursue
it
none who would
hurt grass
soil
land but criminal hands
condemn them then
