I started to watch Dunkirk
but became quickly annoyed
at the scene of the Stukas
bombing the soldiers lining
up on the beach; for after
the bombs had exploded
and the planes gone
there were only two
kinds of soldiers on
that shore: Those alive,
and those dead, like
in a video game or
an old Western movie,
and the reality of
wounded men crying
in terrible pain
utterly missing.
