8. Poetry By day, by the York, The colors of spent trees
And of the falling leaves
Repeating themselves,
Dying across the field,
Waving in the wind.
Yes. And the color of old ranks
Came striding.
And I remembered the crack of the flintlocks.
The colors of the ranks
Blended with the leaves themselves,
Turning in the wind,
In the sunlit wind.
They swept over the the field,
Moving as rows and ranks
Toward walls of earth.
I thought I heard them crack - the flintlocks.
Was it a crack for the sunlight
Or for the leaves themselves,
Turning as flames
Turn in fire,
Turning as the rows of flintlocks
Turned toward the burning earth,
Echoing the steps of the ranks,
Beating with the cracking of the flintlocks?
Or was it for the heartbeat of our ranks?
Poetry
Across the field
I saw humanity gathered
Like the leaves themselves,
Moving in the wind.
Then I saw how the sun moved,
Burned over the colors of the ranks,
Far above the flashing of the flintlocks.
