i saw the vision of armies (walt whitman)

i saw the vision of armies;
and i saw, as in noiseless dreams, hundreds of battle-flags,
borne through the smoke of the battles and pierced with missiles, i saw them,
and carried, hither and yon through the smoke, and torn and bl–dy;
and at last but a few shreds of ‘the flags left on the staffs, (and all in silence,)
and the staffs all splintered and broken.

i saw battle-corpses, myriads of them,
and the white skeletons of young men, i saw them;
i saw the debris and debris of all dead soldiers,
but i saw they were not as was thought;
they themselves were fully at rest, they suffered not;
the living remained and suffered, the mother suffered,
and the wife and the child and the musing comrade suffered,
and the armies that remained suffered.
