Linger not, stranger; shed no tear.
Go back to those who sent us here.
We are the young they drafted out
To wars their folly brought about.
Go tell those old men, safe in bed,
We took their orders and are dead. A.D. Hope:
Inscription for War
Linger not stranger, shed no tear
Go back to those who dump us here.
We are the young they’ve left behind
Without prospects but they don’t mind.
Go tell those old folks, safe and rich,
We are disowned and that’s the glitch. D. Dave:
Message for Revolution.
