You see, I C B M’s, as the much-touted
Intercontinental ballistic missiles
But, I C them as a World in a ‘Bloody Mess’,
It’s the same I C B M!
And,  all because of the insatiable desire
To conquer all,  a la Veni Vidi Vici
This Planet and more, The skies, The shore
The Universe,
 Encore!
‘Tis skill  time and kill time
A new kind of nursery rhyme,
Missiles not Cruises
Fatal are all Bruises,
Everything nuclear
Nothing clear,
‘Tis skill time and kill time ,
Vive La Defense!
(No reference to the lovely area in Paris)
