These Fought In Any Case
These Fought In Any Case These fought in any case, and some believing pro domo, in any case…..
Some quick to arm, some for adventure, some from fear of weakness, some from fear of censure, some for love of slaughter, in imagination, learning later ...
Died some, pro patria, walked eye-deep in hell believing in old men's lies, then unbelieving came home, home to a lie, home to many deceits, home to old lies and new infamy; usury age-old and age-thick and liars in public places.
Daring as never before, wastage as never before. Young blood and high blood, fair cheeks, and fine bodies;
fortitude as never before frankness as never before, disillusions as never told in the old days, hysterias, trench confessions, laughter out of dead bellies.
These fought no matter what, and some believing for their own benefit, no matter what..... Some were quick to take up arms,
some for thrill, some out of fear of being seen as weak, some out of fear of being judged, some for the love of killing, in their imagination, learning later ... Some died for
their homeland, walked deeply into hell believing in the lies of old men, then stopped believing came home, home to a falsehood, home to many lies, home to old lies and new disgrace; ancient and thick usury and liars in public offices.
Bravery as never before, waste as never before. Young blood and noble blood, beautiful faces, and strong bodies;
courage as never before honesty as never before, disappointments as never told in the past, panic, trench confessions, laughter from dead bodies.
