Ode To Victor Hugo -The Miserable (Flow Of Flood) waterloo-2 Poem by Freeyad Ibrahim

There is no logic in the flow of the flood
The army fronts are like waves
on the seashore,
Advancing and retreating regiments
Battalions are like puffs of smoke:
At a given place, there was a given object
Look for it again,
And it has gone.
To depict a battle,
we need a painter
with chaos in his brush.
He who was accurate at noon
is a liar by three o'clock
Geometry is misleading,
Only the tempest is true!
