Terms of Service

Thanks awfully, you plucky little chap;
Now you have died for us, we'll shut our yap
On this condition, let us make it clear:
For no more than two minutes in the year.
We must be brief, lest agents of defeat
Rewrite your sacrifice as "no repeat!"
Carve this in stone for your memorial:
Though you fall mute, our cannons never shall.

Victor Brittan
