DPF / Akhmatova

Dreams, war.

from Poem Without a Hero / by Anna Akhmatova

But a dream — is also something real,
Soft embalmer, Blue Bird,
The parapets and terraces of Elsinore.

DPF / Hugo

War, dreams, home.

from In Your War Dream / by Richard Hugo

You ask, “Why must I do this again?” A man
replies, “Home.” You fly over one country
after another. The nations are bright, like a map.
