a propósito de um "acordo"

II
Isto é a completa capitulação do movimento sindical. Assinar para quê?
De que serviu termos saído à rua? Para passear no Passeio Público?

1º de 2010-Tom Verlaine-Words from the front

Entrando lentamente em 2010...


There's no road.
It's been raining now for three days
We're in mud up to our knees.

If luck prevails and I'm given leave
I should be home by the 17th.
One word I hear all the time
This word I hear
Blind

John died last night,
He had no chance
Beneath the surgeon's drunken hands.
It's hard to see
Who's about
The fires we light
Soon smolder out.

Up on the ridge
They're dug in deep
We move in waves,
As if asleep.
And there they lay
Four thousand men
The general orders "Attack again"
