WAR
by Bonty Liar


Its a funny old
Business
War
Viscious murdering dictators
Weapons of mass destruction
Collateral damage
Civilian casualties
Not much on telly
Gas masks, black chocolate, bacon rations
And a bit of whoopsy in the bomb shelter
with Mrs Peacock who says
It'll all be over by christmas when the yanks come in
