Still Christmas in Berlin

 

No romance for the moment

Christ child forgotten

In the press of madness and of stirring

Grief

To complement the cowardice in Nice

Undeclared, ununiformed men

Who know no better

Than to render a cause stupid

And larcenous

Stealing life from love

The gospel of the season

That will outlast you
