beginning to know... <br />how Pasternak felt, <br />long Russian revolution... <br /> <br />gunfire, exploding... <br />neighbor fighting neighbor, <br />the poor battling the elite... <br /> <br />for cause, for ideal... <br />people disappearing, <br />work camps, Siberia... <br /> <br />unmarked graves... <br />long harsh winters, <br />snow like death wrapped <br /> <br />around windows and doors. <br />wolves howl, primordial call.... <br />in the name of freedom, <br /> <br />betrayed, and forgotten... <br />poems stolen from the heart, <br />by the candle's last flicker.... <br /> <br />the cry of humanity <br />lost in the gunfire and the snow...<br /><br />Eric Cockrell<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/revolution-and-snow/
