TRIUMPHAL MARCH, by                     Poet's Biography
First Line: After the long strike
Last Line: What did it matter we'd lost?
Subject(s): Labor & Laborers; Labor Unions; Strength; Strikes; Work; Workers; Labor Disputes; Lockouts


After the long strike
We continued walking in circles
For a long time: dreaming:
Many nights many days
Dizzy (but not with success)
From the round dance of our struggle!

O Solidarity!
What did it matter we'd lost?
