gwenno - war lyrics
did you live thus before the war
through peace’s infancy, who came of age
to die? my homing pigeons in their cage
peck at the wicker door
strut, quiver their wings. go fly my dove
who never dallied yet
through fogs of forty years to lawns where summer set
and children watched the dove+cote shadows move
before the war, before
give us the other years of pеace
when red and black fought squarе by square and all
the narrow allies crackled and the dale
here rained black manna. grace
hid in the bottom drawer. there was no more
all else is what was lost
and sought by us in anguish, sought with guilty haste
in vain. that we were waiting for the war
was written on our face
desperate indeed, pre+d+mned by the event
you took the cards and gambled on the red?
we gathered up the cards as you have said
and while the armies went
rumbling by, we played at vingt+et+un
judge if you like, but we
wept for a cardboard king. i find it hard to see
now to what cryptic plan the cards refer
or what the stakes then meant
did you live thus before the war
through peace’s infancy?
