With Blood on His Hands, Commissar Y. Raichman Ponders the Forest of the Dead at Katyn,1943
A Nazi lie and Hitler’s plot? —
The forest sighs but gives no answers.
Twelve thousand Polish officers rot,
grandsons of Sobieski’s lancers,
reactionary anti-Semites,
too dead to reach for thoughts or guns,
or, in the fragrant dark of spring nights,
to father patriotic sons.
