Like a column, as so often before,
Misery marches with combatants,
Pillage, murder, chopped throats.

Like whirled off flocks got away,
Irretrievable losses were bewailed:
‘He let me dwell in darkness
like those long dead.’
‘Look at us despairing, Lord
of this blood soaked soil.’

A fine aesthetic word wreath
Doesn’t grasp the deed.
The blunt exposure of corpses
Doesn’t move the eye,
Missing are clicking handcuffs
For justice.

This is a poster
With fact, with picture, with claim
That tomorrow
Will sport from every wall.

(Lamentations 3,6 – 587 BC)
(G. Walden: We, the Lost – 1943)

(Gregor Walden 1913 – 1945
Soldier und Resistance Fighter)
