"displayer" poems
Eight, Three, Zero Lighted flares, all directions streaming Atmosphere exultant, saw not an opportunity for askewness Waved banners, displayer of the iconic Blue, White, Red For the breeze ruffled these shades Gallantly proclaiming, alas, the Republic Dassault Rafale, engines roaring ahead Nine, Zero, Zero A precipitous shift in mood The cheers were different, in fact Almost as if fading White, White, White The vehicle shifts its gear The man’s foot unforgivingly pressed on acceleration Ploughing through, snowplow through ice One, One, Two They dial, no longer are Their shouts for some celebratory cause Tucked under the rubber, eternal slumber Four, Score, Four Young and free, they were not exempt Fatimah, Jean, Brodie, Christianne A lone rider, forlorn in cessation Fourteen, Seven, Sixteen A new motivation for commemoration Juncture of remembrance For the bravest hearts Liberté, égalité, fraternité Kept in ******* a formidable bulwark War wages forth, yet for the Hexagon We weep.
