Warp
War is a roar, a Vive le Roi from one to another possessed servant with the king’s lips. The speakers suffer nothing more than to be loyal, dutiful, faithful and obedient ninepins. No place to belong to, every man is clerk of the signet. Minister and army tell me that pain is a present.
Erasure poem derived from The Diary of Samuel Pepys, Friday 4 May 1660.
