Dorman Poem 2

Robert Dorman
75th division
Canadian Expeditionary Force

VERSE AND WORSE BY R.O. (BOB) DORMAN

A PARODY WHEN YOU PLAY IN THE GAME OF WAR

Sometimes a shell
Sometimes it’s hell
Sometimes a bullet or two
Sometimes the gas is sneaking
Trying to catch you sleeping
Sometimes a bomb or trench mortar
Sometimes a whiz bang or two
Sometimes it’s mud
Sometimes it’s blood
When you play in the game
Called WAR
