A Nazi lie and Hitler’s plot? — <br />The forest sighs but gives no answers. <br />Twelve thousand Polish officers rot, <br />grandsons of Sobieski’s lancers, <br />reactionary anti-Semites, <br />too dead to reach for thoughts or guns, <br />or, in the fragrant dark of spring nights, <br />to father patriotic sons.<br /><br />Leo Yankevich<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/with-blood-on-his-hands-commissar-y-raichman-ponders-the-forest-of-the-dead-at-katyn-1943/
