M-day's child is fair of face
Drill-day's child is full of grace

Gun-day's child is breastless and blind
Drill-day's child is full of grace
Shell-day's child is out of its mind

Bomb-day's child will always be dumb
Cannon-day's child can never quite come
But the child that's born on Battle-day is blithe and bonny and rotted away.

- Muriel Rukeyser
