In August That Year
It was mad in August that year.
There were no coloured pencils to serve as scissors or curlers for silvery hair.
No sleds to glide over Thick layers of snow, To lessons in German with lice-ridden Turks,
It was bad in August that year, with visions of stages and well delivered lines and tears and departures which fractured some minds. There were cynics and critics and dark silent fear.
