“Official Films”—they came
After “Corinne and Her Minstrels”
Had ministered to fame.
Had pigeon-toed away,
We saw where bits of churches
And bits of horses lay.
We saw no unscathed tree.
We shivered in our comfort
And murmured: “Can it be!”
Repeating: “Is it true?”
We brushed a khaki shoulder
And asked no more. We knew!
