The War Works Hard:
How magnificent the
war is!
How eager and
efficient!
Early in the morning
it wakes up the sirens
and dispatches ambulances
to various places
swings corpses through the air
rolls stretchers to the wounded
summons rain from the eyes of mothers.
It produces the most questions
in the minds of children
and urges families to emigrate.
The war continues working, day and night.
It inspires tyrants
to deliver long speeches
awards medals to generals
and themes to poets.
It contributes to the industry
of artificial limbs
provides food for flies
adds pages to the history books
achieves equality
between killer and killed
teaches lovers to write letters
accustoms young women to waiting
fills the newspapers
with articles and pictures
builds new houses
for the orphans
invigorates the coffin makers
gives grave diggers
a pat on the back
and paints a smile on the leader’s face
It work’s with unparalleled diligence!
Yet no one gives it
a word of praise.
