The following are two poems from the minds
our contemporaries;
THE SQUIRREL WHEEL.
The world Is q squirrel wheel
For the horseback,
And the marching men
Whose feet spin the earth around
The men whose thoughts, desires and destinies
Creep along waterways,
Drift through mountain passes
Or play hopscotch from frontier to frontier
Fly great many flags
And boom thousand guns.
You who are caught,
You who henmed in,
Play at being conqueror;
Stream yards and yards of bunting,
And let the brass bands bray.
Let no one mention
Pri sons, cages, judgment, grief or years,
Or tell how fast dead flesh flakes off
Within the wheel.

WHILE THE BOMBS BURST

For those who order that the guns spout fire,
The blood meared private's seems far and dime
The heart of hdstory shall not throb for him
Who guards the tunneled fort or W1thes- In mire.
Nor can alien watchers hear the choir
Of our racked Kindred, robbed of sight or limb
Where sly-bombs rumble and mems broWs are grim
With dread of bat tering tank and swooping f11er.
Here IS the most real---not where, a1oof,.
The spurred dictator clanks hi heels, but where
The clerk, the vi lager waves his bride good-by,
And where, alone beneath the earthen roof,
wives weep, and fri ghtened boys, in the red glare
Of the huge guns, stagger and curse and die.
