Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFG HIEJEK HLMNOP

War is no longer declaredA
only continued The monstrousB
has become everyday The heroC
stays away from battle The weakD
have gone to the frontE
The uniform of the day is patienceF
its medal the pitiful star of hope above the heartG
-
The medal is awardedH
when nothing more happensI
when the artillery falls silentE
when the enemy has grown invisibleJ
and the shadow of eternal armamentE
covers the skyK
-
It is awardedH
for desertion of the flagL
for bravery in the face of friendsM
for the betrayal of unworthy secretsN
and the disregardO
of every commandP
