Sixty years after Professor Müller painted his horrific image of the war that swallowed Dresden, Germany, tourists sit in summer clothes
and chat happily in Dresden cafes.
Sandburg saw the future in 1918: Time and grass erase the memory of war.
The reason history must repeat itself
is because we pay too little attention the first time.
Here’s an interesting bit of trivia: When I went looking for an image in which Sandburg’s Grass had already been embedded, I found what I wanted at a website crafted by Ivan Boothe called The Quixotic Life. Go figure!
There’s another Quixote nutjob out there! Wizzo has a brother!
Uh-oh.
Did I just call the wizard a nutjob?
Let’s hope he doesn’t read this deep into the rabbit hole…
