Lesbia Harford (Лесбия Харфорд)


* * *


I was sad
Having signed up in a rebel band,
Having signed up to rid the land
Of a plague it had.
For I knew
That I would suffer, I would be lost,
Be bitter and foolish and tempest tost
And a failure too.
I was sad;
Though far in the future our light would shine
For the present the dark was ours, was mine,
I couldn't be glad.



Lesbia Harford's other poems:
  1. Suburban Dames
  2. Each morning I pass on my way to work
  3. You, whom the grave cannot bind
  4. White Sunshine
  5. Tall trees along the road
