Henry's Farewell – III
Fail may your enemies, abundant here,
in that most happy clime. Play it by ear
out there until all's straight
and may no rudeness interrupt your play.
One decade's war forget, in which, I may say,
we've scarcely won a battle to this date.
Fresh from the woodwork issued our blue foes
botanists & peasants of elementary german
drones, drones in the hive.
Faction ran wild & so did many vermin
fresh from their woodwork and we bore their blows
& carried on our work alive.
I fear the queen is swarming, toward the west
taking her chosen workers, for a stunt
leaving behind her Henry.
No harm in that, the old survival test.
Pardon my sore toast, nominal & blunt
& let's get on toward the sea.
– John Berryman (1969)
