    Dusk Covers WWI Trench

    As dusk their line visibly bows,
    Cropped heads beneath mounds fold;
    Glum shadows through addle fields row

    Listless turrets sprout o'er demarcated woe;
    Sallowed eyes in bleary sockets rolled,
    As dusk their line visibly bows

    Shocked ears to concussive barrage close;
    As sighs from clogged lungs are paroled,
    Raspy shadows through addle fields row

    Smoldering smoke in singed heaven glows;
    Vaporous cloud o'er scout binoculars scrolled,
    As dusk their line visibly bows

    Each rifle into a sterile stack goes,
    Rumbling caissons to dark corners doled,
    Steel shadows through addle fields row

    The fog of war o'er dazed minds flows;
    An eerie wind curdles each silent mold
    As dusk their line visibly bows,
    Wispy shadows through addle fields row
