黎明时分的袭击

“不惜一切代价。”他们说,‘必须这么做。他们在下午早些时候告诉我们的。我们坐着,等待太阳的到来。看月亮的灰色群体。我们伸展双腿,在睡梦中喃喃低语,触摸刺刀和纱线的尖端。我们的手很冷。他们奇怪地摸索着,爬着,拽着带子的末端。我们等待黎明!有些人排着纵队跌跌撞撞地走过。 And scrape the trench?s side and scatter sand. They trip and curse and go. Perhaps we smile. We wait the dawn! ? The dawn is close at hand! A gentle rustling runs along the line. `At every cost,? they said, `it must be done.? A hundred eyes are staring for the sign. It?s coming! Look! ? Our God?s own laughing sun!
