PHOTOGRAPH AFTER THE RAID Poem by Remco Campert

PHOTOGRAPH AFTER THE RAID



Corpses look carefully arranged
in every shade of black and white

the form as it were exposes them
style and structure

on the pavement a functional splash of blood
the composition of incipient decay

sublime statement
auctioned at Christie's

five to seven thousand
dollars
