| Notes | The title of this poem refers to Glanders disease (which was believed to have been spread to infect Russian horses and mules during World War I). The title rhymes with "Flanders" in the final lines. Although not focused on war per se, this poem does contain passing references to wartime memories. First published in Quoof (1983). |
