Was it worth it? Or was it a load of blip? Who is now in Afghanistan? Why, of course, the Taliban, Each week, we lost some fine young man, Or, indeed, maimed a lovely woman, Now there's reprisals galore, But wait, there's even more, The refugees are still waiting, For discrimination to be abating, Thoughts emanate, like an aside, Was your trip worth the ride? No doubt, great feats in Afghanistan, Thank you, every fine young girl and man.....
