One For Buk

I’m going to transcribe this poem from my 3/26/20 notes. I don’t think it’ll make it through the typer and I kind of view this blog as a behind-the-scenes dear John to the loving and bored. Commentary always welcome, encouraged, and reciprocated.

They think of Buk, as a fizzed old ledger, poke fun, on a dead bear. Do they think, of the man, under the skin? We post the pictures, of guilt, for shame, forgotten. Virtue and valor, heroics ill-gotten, to the victor, the pages, but was it who won? Were there three men, raising the flag? Or one? – btr
