Not one death but many,
not accumulation but change, the feed-back proves, the feed-back is
the law

The Kingfishers (1950)

What does not change
is the will to change

The Kingfishers (1950)

And all now is war
Where so lately there was peace,
and the sweet brotherhood, the use
of tilled fields.

The Kingfishers (1950)

When the attentions change
the jungle
leaps in even the stones are split
they rive

The Kingfishers (1950)

with what violence benevolence is bought
what cost in gesture justice brings
what wrongs domestic rights involve
what stalks
this silence

The Kingfishers (1950)
