If they don't perish in the theatre
of conflict honour-bonded to
God, king and country! old soldiers
just gently fade away. Not
however, old war-horses firm and
steadfast in the ideology of anti-
Imperialism devoted to the
higher moral ground of sacrifice
in the name of social equality whose
deep allegiance to poverty and
universal service keeps them in
the race firmly harnessed to
ensuring the misery of those they
insist must be part of their revolutionary
spirit. They hand over the reins of
power only when death's knell
is imminent secure in the knowledge
that their legacy is firmly established
the title of social warrior unparalleled
theirs forevermore worshipped.
