Water in Vinegar Blood

by Debashish Haar — Read all 156 poems by Debashish Haar

Monday, February 11, 2008

A hundred years from now
we'll be past, our history impartial.
The gods and weapons we market
will be part-by-part scanned.
The greatest peacemakers of our times
will be charged with swelling the assets
of Hitler and Mussolini.
New propagandists will obliterate
Goebel from sociology textbooks.
The military junkets, where children
learn numbers counting
dead friends and siblings,
will see small protests and uprisings.

In this journey in nonlinear times
poets, prophets and madmen
will contribute to one another’s oeuvre.
Whiskey will be sold in poetry books,
poetry in beer cans,
beer in blood banks,
blood in water tanks,
water in vinegar blood.

Excellent progression in this poem. Reason meets imagination and opens the reader's mind.

Truly thought-provoking, Debs - the enjambement of such unlikely findings compounds the feel of fracture and total non-sensical state of being. I like that you anchor this surreal setting within the framework of "nonlinear times"... makes sense of it all, somehow! Time, life and perception will be in total meltdown. Great to see you about the place again! :)) Kate xx
