The girl soldier Vaudevue sits
Her fingers tap the ground, she is alone
At midnight in the moonlight she is sitting alone on a round flat stone.
Graded by the Memel Conference first
Of all human exterminators
M L 5
Has left her just alive
Only her memory is dead for evermore.
She fears and cries, Ah me, why am I here?
Sitting alone on a round flat stone on a hummock there.
Rising, staggering, over the ground she goes
Over the seeming miles of rutted meadow
To the margin of a lake
The sand beneath her feet
Is cold and damp and firm to the waves' beat.
Quickly - as a child, an idiot, as one without memory -
Vaudevue may believe that the lake will cleanse her of her sorrows and pain. 
 There is an interesting parallel with the King Arthur legend. After the last battle of the Arthurian Knights, the wounded King Arthur was brought to a lake. Tennyson’s poem,  Morte d'Arthur  describes the water as beautiful and mystical, and Arthur is borne away to a special paradise, Avalon, by three goddesses. The promise is hinted that, like many dying gods or near-gods or kings (and even Elvis Presley), he hasn’t truly died and will one day return. 
 
 Vaudevue, after her own war, will also be borne away to her death on the lake. However, her end may be final and her salvation less ethereal and spiritual than King Arthur’s.
