Veteran

The end of history

Noon came by appointment after the war and stayed till late. I see what it is: another night.

Re/creation

I work at leisure— a holy war. I have bought all my own pleasures and so proceed in a supper of ash, ourselves a dish.
ContemplativeDave Bonta

Silent drunk

I lost my labor to the war, my time to bed, my place to a store of wine. What a sad story! I make one good thing: a great quiet.
AnxiousDave Bonta

Proverbial (6)

Char a bass and be glad. The pater noster yesterday; war today. Vexed to eat, vexed to be.
ContemplativeDave Bonta

Nonviolence

I answer a word as red as war with play. We can act like puppets, or be content to be.

Downsizers

The poor shall never please us, even in war. The devil, our broker, broke in the street, angry at all the blood we drank.
CheerfulDave Bonta

My fat hat is an angry hat, a troublesome hat, a weary hat, a staid hat, a yesterday hat, a war hat, a Big Brother hat.
AngryDave Bonta

War dance

War gives the world an ill music in praise of the mad.

I ready a horse for war this way: with a quake, a wick, a lifetime within his two ears.
SadDave Bonta

Refugees

Robbed of our light by the war, too late to take pleasure in talk, I put on my night cloak.
