Explore "Europe" by Ella Wheeler Wilcox on Textopian. Read with annotations and highlights.
Little lads and grandsires, / Women old with care; / But all the men are dying men / Or dead men over there.
No one stops to dig graves; / Who has time to spare? / The dead men, the dead men / How the dead men stare.
Kings are out a-hunting- / Oh, the sport is rare; / With dying men and dead men / Falling everywhere.
Life for lads and grandsires; / Spoils for kings to share; / And dead men, dead men, / Dead men everywhere.
