STORIES, POEMS, AND ESSAYS OF THE SECOND WORLD WAR
INTRODUCED AND EDITED BY
RONALD BLYTHE

We in our haste can only see the small components of the scene
We cannot tell what incidents will focus on the final screen. A barrage of disruptive sound, a petal on a sleeping face, Both must be noted, both must have their place; It may be that our later selves or else our unborn sons Will search for meaning in the dust of long deserted guns, We only watch, and indicate and make our scribbled pencil notes. We do not wish to moralize, only to ease our dusty throats.
DONALD BAIN
