Granite Monuments Poem by Michael Pruchnicki
Granite Monuments
Rating: ★2.2
The sun sank over the cemetery
near the main post at Fort Riley
Bugles sounded in nearby
quadrangles in darkening
shadows
Lights were extinguished
in brick barracks
Fleeting figures of troops
disappeared
Soldiers' day is done
on Kansas plains
Mute markers
of granite
at parade rest
