“But death replied: “I choose him.” So he went,
And there was silence in the summer night;
Silence and safety; and the veils of sleep.
Then, far away, the thudding of the guns.”
― Siegfried Sassoon

“Black milk of dawn we drink you at night
we drink you mornings and noontime we drink you evenings
we drink and we drink”
