GRASS

Pile the bodies high at Austerlitz and Waterloo
Shovel them under and let me work—
I am the grass, I cover all
And pile them high at Gettysburg
And pile them high at Ypres, Verdun, Stalingrad
Shovel them under and let me work
Two years, ten years, and passengers ask the conductor
What place is this
Where are we now
I am the grass
Let me work
