What
was written in blood has been set up in lead.
Lead
tears the heart. Lead tears the brain.
What
was written in blood has been set up in lead.
The
heart is a drum. The drum has a snare.
The
snare is in the blood. The blood is in the air.
Listen
to what they did. Listen to what’s to come.
Listen
to the blood. Listen to the drum.
James Fenton
