"When in the evening The Black Wasti came round Ihe Island In an evil flood. "Why do we stand? "What out of all is secure? "What work is not worn down. Is not made sand?" Then your voice spoke Out of the heart of another century. Reiterating England. There in darkness; There in a wash of lies That eats like acid at the feet of men, When men said to each other. "There is no answer," You spoke for Trafalgar And for the sombre lions in ihe square." --poem dedicated to Churchill, Finest Hour (1965) James Maxwell Anderson |
