Blighters

    By Siegfried Loraine Sassoon



    The house is crammed: tier beyond tier they grin
    And cackle at the Show, while prancing ranks
    Of harlots shrill the chorus, drunk with din;
    "We're sure the Kaiser loves the dear old Tanks!"

    I'd like to see a Tank come down the stalls,
    Lurching to rag-time tunes, or "Home, sweet Home," -
    And there'd be no more jokes in Music-halls
    To mock the riddled corpses round Bapaume.
