Another *Cold War* poem. I dunno, going on another Russian history kick. I'm quite eclectic, really. Hehe. Anyway, please read and review!! Thanks!

At This Late Date Realization Comes To Nothing

In this not-
Even-
Century they look
About: how few
Recall
Fathers running off and returning
Home because there was War
And none-at-all.
When there
Stood iron
And McCarthyism?

Last night it was a Free World
Today it is
An overbearing July. Tonight
The cities will
Connect the surface in
Tangent webs of
Light: a homeless
Man waits by Stalin's
Tomb the children locate
Cuba on a map;
And West Berlin
