Musing through
a war museum
and being amused
by the tributes
to tribulation...
I began to sing...

"Frog went a courting
and he did ride...
sword and pistol
by his side"

And the Sergeant
who was yelling at a
frightened Private,
in a faded old
black and white
photograph,
seemed to say...

"tsk tsk
little tadpole

tuck your tail
and hop to it"

Ah,dashing
and daring,
gallant youth

"he laughed and
laughed and said,
"I'll cut that boy in half"

Uncle Rat wants you.
