Their Barricade Against The Sky

1471

Their Barricade against the Sky
The martial Trees withdraw
And with a Flag at every turn
Their Armies are no more.

What Russet Halts in Nature's March
They indicate or cause
An inference of Mexico
Effaces the Surmise-

Recurrent to the After Mind
That Massacre of Air-
The Wound that was not Wound nor Scar
But Holidays of War
