    Besta luck
    Well then shove it up your hole
    Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold;
    Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
    The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere***
    The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
    The best lack all conviction, while the worst
    Are full of passionate intensity.

      I knew a simple soldier boy.....
      Who grinned at life in empty joy,
      Slept soundly through the lonesome dark,
      And whistled early with the lark.

      In winter trenches, cowed and glum,
      With crumps and lice and lack of rum,
      He put a bullet through his brain.
      And no one spoke of him again.

      You smug-faced crowds with kindling eye
      Who cheer when soldier lads march by,
      Sneak home and pray you'll never know
      The hell where youth and laughter go.

      • Deep condolences to the Sgt on the GoH at Glasnevin on Sunday morning who lost his medals halfway through the reverse arms.
        I wonder did he get them back?
        For now, everything hangs on implementation of the CoDF report.

          They were by his feet for most of the rest of the ceremony, I thought that one of the roving DF pers would have shot in and taken them away before the GOH moved off, but I didn't see that happen.
