Case d'Armons – Saillant, Poem by Guillaume Apollinaire

Poem by Guillaume Apollinaire Collection CalligrammesThemes WarPeriod 20th century

To André Level

Attentive rapidity a slight uncertainty
But a dragon on foot unarmed
Amid the wind when the aerial
torpedo appears
The broom of greenery
Do you remember
It is here in the stones
Of the beautiful devastated kingdom

Hail The Rapace

Grain of wheat

But the snake looks at me standing like a sword

Alive like a horse pif
A shell hole clean as a bathroom
Shepherd followed by his golden-brown flock
But where is a heart and the swastika
Aÿ Ancient name of renown
The toad sang the nocturnal sapphires

Lou
Lou Verzy

LONG LIVE
THE
CAPISTON

And along the canal girls were going away

Guillaume Apollinaire
