Non-metallic and in consequence a silencer of sound—
There would be within our borders
Fewer nerve and brain disorders
And more of moral uplift to go round.

Who's always in the thick of it whenever there's a raid.
Bombs of various sorts and sizes
He describes and analyses,
But he can't endure a long milk-cannonade.
