Pea Ridge:
Not long enough.
No time enough to soothe
Anguish from gray Arkansas eyes.
No time.

Not sure I understand this, but maybe it will need time to rest in my mind.
(I do understand that Pea Ridge references a Civil War Battle.)

Powerful in its brevity.
Great poem.

Yep, near Fayetteville. I lived there a year, from the north. The subject did come up.
