Daily Ingeborg Bachmann (1953 )
The war is no longer declared,
but continued. The unprecedented
became daily. The hero
stays away from the fighting. The weak
moved in the areas of focus.
The uniform now is patience, the wretched
medal
star of hope, pinned to the heart.
is awarded when nothing happens, when the fire drumming
mutes,
when the enemy has become invisible
and the shadow of an eternal reset
covers the sky.
is awarded for the flight from the flags,
for the value of face to his friend,
for the betrayal of secrets and opprobrious
the failure of all orders.
