Haiku’s by Dmitri Lipson
– The Last Dance
Together on perch
carried In by the nights winds
two bluejays danced
– Wasps and Butterflies
Stingers made sure that
theres no life in the roses
none can bring them back
– 1915
They are the young ones
choking blood, and chlorine gas
war’s here to claim them
– 1916
Brave ones, die with me
those that can’t will die sobbing
hidden in shell holes
– 1917
You won’t find them here
they all fell like autumn leaves
in dead scattered piles
