Op. Disappointment.

Op. Disappointment.

Tension Evaporates, Leaving Indecision Cold
hanging, as condensation on pressurised pipes
trunking away their business inches from ratings noses
' Might we embolden our selves in Valletta on the lash?
So drunk on cheap ale, we shall have Maltese crosses for our eyes
with Banyans near Limmassol with Aphrodite-esq charms
or Gully Gully men, fishing after us cash
or will there be proud Sicklebills, guarding horizontal palms? '

' Perhaps, afterwards, if we take the long way home
After the master gunner releases all his cordite
when Magic has dispensed with our Ray-dome
when the evolutions end,
post-mortem of our impoverished enemy
to the Maldives or Singers if we're lucky Pusser,
might us send
but deaf will be gun damaged ears if you plea
To Enthusiastic Lunatics Itemising Charts

That we really aught to be taking more Aircraft
& their Carriers, Destroyers, more of everything really
not just ships, but countries, too.
Why are the Canadians sitting this one out?
what does Ottawa know, we don’t?
Iberian commandoes and old NATO kit nearly
makes us feel confidant, as bombers ordnance lay
but Lo Siento, pero
Todo Es Loco y Ilógico a Comprende

Meanwhile, deals for lucrative fusion in the pissoir
our Entente strained with Gailic army on strike
plotting as Brutus in ancient spa
Their 'Brave Boys' are only tracksuit wearing scum
like
Tous lEs anglais Leur Infanterie sont des Crétins

Ship me somewheres East of Suez, where the best is like the worst
cried empires laureate
with out the shadow of fiscal curse
There will be no rewarding cruises & cold beers to sup
or Flight deck Barbie’s
only 3 weeks work up
then in-to anti flash & full AWD’s
Our six on six off is all that ensouled
      This rotten Operation.....
                                     ..... oh, yeah, shippers, don’t forget to

Tell Everyone..... Leave Is Cancelled
