Ed Sanders: Poem from Jail: Against "the enormous organized cowardice"
And at my ear
was the whirr
of wings,
"red wing,
black wing,
black wing
shot with crimson,"
and the Bird Flock
stared to my eye,
and always the Birds
flap overhead
shrieking
like a "berserk
tobacco auction":
Pains! Neverbirth! Dieness!
*
*
And we have
seen the men
farting around
in Geneva,
and the governments
have not clasped
one another
as lovers,
confronting
each other
in nakedness
No, they have
not halted hate.
Yes, it is true:
Death shall assume
the continuum.
*
*
Whom do we
blame, O Traveler...
O Traveler
let us blame
the cowardly,
& those in charge
of war,
the economists
&the profiteers,
&the hidden
men in the
military,
&all those who
profit by Death.
And let us place blame
upon
"the enormous
organized cowardice."
Ed Sanders: Poem from Jail, Montville State Jail, Uncasville, Connecticut, August 8-24, 1961, "having attempted to board the Polaris missile submarine the Ethan Allen, as a witness for peace" (excerpts)
a hand without face cards,
the enormous organized cowardice
Ezra Pound, Canto XC
and in the boughs now are voices
grey wing, black wing, black wing shot with crimson
