Bush Seeks Payment Boost For Some War Dead

by Tony Peyser

There’s now a new
Incentive for
Parents to send
Their kids to war.

A death gratuity
Once worth twelve grand
To one hundred thousand
Will soon expand.

If Moms and Dads feel
Their kids won’t be missed
They should just urge
Them all to enlist.
