Administrating
How many legionnaires would have been killed
Had Pilate not released Barabbas? Scores?
A minyan? None? The urgent mandate was,
Look to it Palestine does not revolt.
And, not till Titus, did it. Faced with zeal
Astride an ass and credence waving palms,
Authority will drive its nails, add thieves
To render trivial the grievances,
Be more than ever thankful for the salver.
Centered in the center of the world,
Jerusalem whose navel is its view,
Upon a cross two others parallel,
Sedition distances itself from theft
Or promises it place in Paradise.
As if to whitewash washing of the hands,
Or pose in his own person “What is truth?”
The Procurator will go back to Rome.
Rome’s judgments can, like any, be reversed-If legionnaires are not the jury pool.

After the Fall
Created out of five and dimes,
The Woolworth sums up better times:
A Flemish Gothic 1910
Metropolis that might have been;
As, wholly 1932,
The Empire State, forever new,
Foretells a city so far seen
In drawings only, caught between
Prospectus and a backward glance
Toward Babylon. As we advance
The future takes on m ore and more
A look of follies gone before.
On every planner’s mounting zeal
Hell’s Kitchen comes to put its seal,
And where the streets of Haussmann go
Stood once the Walls of Jericho.
Above the airship mooring mast
The TV aerials broadcast,
Confirming that Count Zeppelin
Is where our Captain Kirks begin.
In fiction--pulp or subtler art-In film, the silents at the start
And talkies after, Emerald
Or Seven Gated, tightly walled
Yet welcoming, a citadel
No actuality can quell,
Our future is that city, myth
We are from childhood encumbered with.

Afterward
An earthquake jolts aside the stone;
The tomb is empty. An unknown
Informant says “He is not here.”
And so we have to go from there.
The highway to Emmaus leads
No farther than where hearsay breeds;
Outside the room where Thomas doubts
Others doubt also. Touch that routs
Such unbelief, if within reach
Of all of us, might have us each
Believer. To distrust the hand
Thrust in the side is to demand
Proof of so high a standard, sense
Plus Second Sight could not convince.
“The evidence of things not seen”
Is what the leap of faith has been,
But notice ‘evidence’ is still
How we describe it. Past the sill
And sepulcher, threshold of lime,
For some brief forty days of time,
At random, not as if on cue,
Appears the missing to the few;
Comes in quite through the bolted door;
Eats; promises; is seen no more.

Albert to Antinous
White tons of marble say that I and you
Brought forth a mourning offered unto few.
If broken up to make a pyramid,
The statues of us, as the quarries did,
Would give employment to entire East Ends.
If my Memorial, just now, offends
Aesthetics, you--medallion, statue, bust-Offend as all idealism must
Created on command: it buys off guilt
By laying on the laurel, fig leaf, kilt.
Too much themselves to be idealized,
The Queen, the Emperor are well advised
To settle for their portraitists. The Greek
Identifies strong-featured with the freak,
So caught up as it is in vapid masks
Of pure idea, to the point one asks
If any sculptor ever used a live
And fully compos mentis model. Dive
Misjudged or self-destruction, when you drowned
You bloated just enough that in the round
No stomach muscles had to be defined.
Aesthetically with German-Greek aligned,
I, fittingly, have gained that bland un-face
Of discus throwers and a male Third Grace,
To be replaced, somewhat, by kilts and Brown.
And you? By any legionnaire in town.

Before Clocks Were Digital
Tonguing the brushes as they line a phosphorescent paint
Upon the dials that are piece work of their day,
The girls who presently will harbor cancer in the jaw
And die of it, in more than one sense Time destroys.
In most of us a radium does not accumulate.
The numerals, however, do. They sum to what,
Subtracted by its twin the midnight hour, is nought indeed:
Zero of a departed beat, a darkened face.
As radium decays it goes to half life, interim
Which we are not permitted. Half life is for us
The half we call a coma. Greenish numerals that light
Insomnia, the hands that track it, are, dispersed
In time, the ghosts of those who painted them, or at the least
Their fit memorials--of application, tongue,
And talent, faint but glowing, form: the minute’s trace prolonged
Beyond the minute, time-specific and yet more.

Crystal But Not Crystal Ball
Upon the sapphire is the light a star?
Who is to say it is not compass points,
Or non-Euclidean geometry
Upon the rounded blue? As sign a star,
The shining asterisk is star but less;
Is radiance without the consequence-Astrology without prediction: twelve
In one, one fate and one mortality.
If you would have your charting different,
Examine then star rubies. Theirs is truth
Extrapolated from the blood, the flash
Of heat across the chill of mineral.
The East and West and North and South of love;
Its novel proofs, its parallels that meet.

Deferring to the Count
Death is a sort of Schlieffen Plan.
It pivots on the young and sweeps the outer edges,
Who are we. Outside the span
Of threescore years and ten, do not its stages
Coerce us ever toward the Styx?
How could you, Count, on campaign maps have failed to see
You drew a sickle, with its fix
Increasingly on reapings grimly sure to be?
And though some few of us become
Tight pockets of resistance, we are not the Marne.
The juggernaut rolls on, a Somme
That never ends, or ends in that putrescent tarn
Senescence is and Flanders was: the Pit, the Poe,
The Pendulum whose fatal pace
Not either discipline or mutiny can slow,
And Time creates of any space.

The Devil and Daedalus
What was the wish of Icarus?
To fly, or to be seen to fly?
What was the wish of Eve?
To know, or hope that, knowing, she could teach?
Do not presume that any end
Will cast a light on motive. Wax
Gone soft, explicit fruit enjoyed,
The sunlight conquers, and the serpent.
Threat subtle or threat obvious,
Free will is that to which, for praise,
The fabricating father frees.
A rib removed, the wing affixed,
Alike bespeak the patriarch,
As Icarus and Eve mean fall.
Flight, when it came, kept close to ground.
If knowledge comes, it comes in part.
Are they in league, the snake and sun?

Edith Cavell
England’s recruiting poster Joan of Arc,
I was a crypto-Walloon, and a stark
Reminder that when all is said and done
The letter of the law was with the Hun,
Although I rose at once to such renown
As was the Lusitania’s, once down,
If with as little claim to innocence.
All that could be brought forth in my defense
Is that I did not profit from my acts,
And that confession is what guile exacts.
Do not think my examiners were fools,
Or did not judge according to their rules.
It is the rules I fault, and though in days
To come I may be seen as through a blaze
Of Union Jacks and poppies, do I fail
If, unlike fearless Florence Nightingale
Shaking the military in her zeal
To bring the male establishment to heel
I’m seen as only fragile victim-nurse,
Or I-Want-You in posters, which is worse.
I’d sooner I urged Flemings to revolt
Or pacifists in Government to bolt.
Out in the Empire I gave name to streets,
But that was pre-Mahatma. Time deletes.
