The Indifferent Ones

Title:     The Indifferent Ones
Author: Frank Oliver Call [More Titles by Call]

Unmoved they sit by the stream of life
And its blood-red tide to the sea goes down,
While the hosts are borne through the surging strife
To a hero's death and a martyr's crown.

They pay no toll of their gold or blood;
For them 'tis a pageant and naught beside;
So they calmly dream by the reeking flood,
While the sun goes down in the crimson tide.

[The end]
Frank Oliver Call's poem: Indifferent Ones
