In memoriam of those lost and of those who will spend time this weekend to honor them, I've taken the first stanza from "The End and the Beginning" from The Poetry Foundation. (The remainder of the poem can be accessed via the title link.)
The End and the Beginning
by WISŁAWA SZYMBORSKA
After every war
someone has to clean up.
Things won’t
straighten themselves up, after all.
