The Crosses
-Juliette Greco (1927-2020)

Born in 1927, peace was never to come in Juliette's childhood. This is what war does:

My God, there are so many crosses on this earth
Iron crosses, wooden crosses, humble familiar crosses
Small silver crosses hanging on chests
Old crosses from convents lost among the ruins

And I, poor me, have my cross in my head
An immense leaden cross as vast as love
I hang the wind on it, I hold back the storm
I prolong the evening on it and hide the day

And I, poor me, have my cross in my head
A word is engraved on it that looks like “suffer”
But this familiar word that my lips repeat
Is so heavy to bear that I think I will die

My God, there are so many on the deep roads
Silent crosses watching over the world
Tall crosses of forgiveness raised toward the gallows
Crosses of madness or deliverance

Hate to admit it but I have too, when I was young hung with a group that all camped in the winter and the rule was No tents but you learn what to do pretty quickly or you go home. Honestly it was a blast, we usedta build a campfire and cook over it, it was fun, but I'm weird:giggle:

Was that a survival training group, boy scouts, or just friends wanting to toughen up?
