grenades in the garden
the men who fell at dieppe
they are the gardeners who grow grenades.
the six million who speak for buchenwald and auswltz and dachau
they are the fertilizer for the gardeners who grow grenades
the thousands of dresden who shed blood like rain
their blood waters the gardens where the grenades grow
and those of us who forget
we are the children who run through the garden
marvelling at the grenades beauty
there are grenades in the garden
