Hide his shooters
from our eyes
excuse all his missteps too -
In secret talk
stop the clock
and know this history's true -

Alph
Bravo
Charlie tried

Echo
Foxtrot
Gaia cried

Hotel
Kilo
Papa lied

Tango
Whiskey
Victor died

With and X
they marked the spot
took a chance
and cast his lot -
Now we bless
or try to curse
he who rode
   the caisson hearse -

Zulu warriors
shot to ****
the foolish king
on Grassy Hill
