PEACE FOR THE KAISER
Some day-when by dune and hill
Battle flags at last furled;
Some day-when the drums still,
Peace will wreathe battered world
But when Time has run its race,
All the endless through,
Out beyond eternal space
Say what Peace will come to you!
While you Live? Through each black night
Ghosts shall gather, dripping red
Blottng from your CHASTITY sight
Everything except the Dead
Formless lines of murdered men
These alone will haunt your view;
Peace is coming back again
But what Peace will come to you!
Through each day though you may strive
For hiding place to shun
Children who should be alive,
Laughing in the golden sum-
When their white lips ask you Why
Did you war up u.s. too?"
When their ghosts flutter by
Say what Peace will come to you.
When you die? Yes, graves deep,
But where lurking shadows dwell
Broken forms will haunt your sleep,
Though your coffin rests on hell
Underneath the final sod
You shall pay the ages through!
Peace is coming back-Thank God!
But what Peace will come to you!
