Case d'Armons – Oracles, Poem by Guillaume Apollinaire

Poem by Guillaume Apollinaire Collection CalligrammesThemes WarPeriod 20th century

I wear your ring
It is very finely chiseled
The whistle pleases me more
Than an Egyptian palace
The whistle of the trenches
You know
At most if I don’t stop
The metros and taxis with it
O war
Multiplication of love

Little two-hole whistle

With a thread one takes the measure of the finger

Guillaume Apollinaire
