Why You Could Never Survive 24 Hours in World War I
War | Infographics Show
In fields of death, where bullets zoom
And bombs fall down from cloudy gloom
A war so bad, like none before
Where none could live a day or more
In trenches deep, where rats do thrive
And soldiers fight hard to survive
The smell of death, the mud, the gore
No place for those who peace adore
Machine guns blast, snipers take aim
And poison gas brings burning pain
New weapons, mean and cruel tricks
In this dark game, no fair conflicts
If by luck you dodge the lead
Sickness and germs wait instead
Trench foot, fever, diarrhea
In dirty, cramped spaces, no area
And if to sea or sky you go
The risks out there, you'll quickly know
In small submarines, or planes up high
No break from fighting, no place to lie
The Eastern Front, just as tough
Where hunger, cold, and typhus rough
Hurt both sides, friend and foe
In cities crushed, where none dare go
So if to World War One you're sent
Your life would be quick and spent
In hellish fields, where death holds power
No one could last even an hour
The "war to end all wars" they said
But left instead, a world of dread.
