List Poem: Writer 5
publication short story shelved
took it to war
wrote during active deployment
wrote amidst atrocities
wrote to save his soul
the book was born in battle
did his own editing
no changes allowed
at liberation of Dachau
maddened by war
work came first
DO NOT DISTURB
disconnect with lovers abrupt
writing was his permanent Mistress
