The Cruellest Month

APRIL is the cruellest month, breeding
Bleeding
Lilacs out of the dead land, mixing
Fixing
Memory and desire, stirring
Blurring
Dull roots with spring rain.
Winter kept us warm, covering
Hovering
Earth in forgetful snow, feeding
Seeding
A little life with dried tubers.
And more death with faith-based FUBARs

BAGHDAD, April 30 -- The deaths of more than 100 American troops in April made it the deadliest month so far this year for U.S. forces in Iraq, underscoring the growing exposure of Americans as thousands of reinforcements arrive for an 11-week-old offensive to tame sectarian violence.
