Ballad of Army Pay
In general, if you want a man to do a dangerous
job : —
Say, swim the Channel, climb St. Paul's, or break
into and rob
The Bank of England, why, you find his wages
must be higher
Than if you merely wanted him to Fight the kitchen
fire.
But in the British Army, it's just the other
way.
And the maximum of danger means the minimum
of pay.
You put some men inside a trench, and call them
infantrie,
And make them face ten kinds of hell, and face it
cheerfully ;
And hve in holes Uke rats, with other rats, and
hce, and toads,
And in their leisure time, assist the R.E.'s with
their loads.
Then, when they've done it all, you give 'em each
a bob a day !
For the maximum of danger means the minimum
of pay.
40
We won't run down the A.S.C., nor yet the
R.T.O.
They ration and direct us on the way we've got
to go.
They're very useful people, and it's pretty plain
to see
We couldn't do without 'em, nor yet the
A.P.C.
But comparing risks and wages, — I think they all
will say
That the maximum of danger means the minimum
of pay.
There are men who make munitions — and seventy
bob a week ;
They never see a lousy trench nor hear a big shell
shriek ;
And others sing about the war at high-class music-
halls
Getting heaps and heaps of money and encores
from the stalls.
They ' keep the home fires burning ' and bright
by night and day.
While the maximum of danger means the minimum
of pay.
I wonder if it's harder to make big shells at a
bench,
Than to face the screaming beggars when they're
crumping up a trench ;
41
I wonder if it's harder to sing in mellow tones
Of danger, than to face it — say, in a wood like
Trone's ; *
Is discipline skilled labour, or something children
play ?
Should the maximum of danger mean the mini-
mum of pay ?

God and the Fantastic Four
Prophet Mohammad is the first Leader of the Universe
He is as dear to God as His heart and the Best Friend of God
He is the symbol of God's innermost layer of glow
That is the glow of kindness, the white and silver glow
This glow has maximum density and minimum shininess
That's why we'll be able to stare at God's body
Prophet Jesus is the second Leader of the Universe
He is called the Soul of God because he is so dear to Him.
He is like the Son of God and is the symbol of God's body and peace
God has seventy thousand layers of His glow
Each layer has a different color and characteristic
Prophet Mary is like the Beauty and Purity of God
She is the third Leader of the Universe
And she is the symbol of God Herself
Imam Mehedi is the fourth Leader of the Universe
And he is the symbol of God's outermost layer of glow
That is the glow of pride and honor
It is the yellow, golden and invisible (black) glow
This glow has minimum density and maximum shininess

I feel the need of attaining the maximum of intensity with the minimum of means. It is this which has led me to give my painting a character of even greater bareness.

O, What is Lost?
Yet again, the stock market crumbles and falls,
Ruining the economy for us all.
A day without a newspaper—
O, what is lost?
Gas prices rise as embargoes are insinuated.
War seems imminent. Tension is elevated.
A day without a newspaper—
O, what is lost?
Epidemics, viral infections are on the verge of spreading.
It's a shame our scientists don't know anything.
A day without a newspaper—
O, what is lost?
Front page: Can you believe it? Could it be true?
Snooki is pregnant. When is she due?
A day without a newspaper—
O, what is lost?

Maximum Joy
(gill/johnson/nash/otoole)
On glory day well get the gifts of heaven up above
All around you hope and joy, to find and fall in love
Can you feel that maximum joy
Rolling round like a brand new boy
Rain and sunshine from heaven
Feeling the wonder, of sun ,rain and thunder
Unravelling lifes mysteries, living to make history
Free at last...
Can you feel that maximum joy
Rolling round like a brand new boy
Rain and sunshine from heaven
Can you feel that maximum joy
Rolling round like a brand new boy
Rain and sunshine from heaven
Can you feel it...
Let dreamers dream and lovers leap
I pray for you our souls to keep free at last...
Can you feel that maximum joy
Rolling round like a brand new boy
Rain and sunshine from heaven
Can you feel that maximum joy
Rolling round like a brand new boy
Rain and sunshine from heaven
I will catch and keep you like a rainbow in my room
And tie you to a star thats rising, dancing on the moon, on the moon
Can you feel it...maximum joy...maximum joy

One Little Comment
One little comment can really change your life;
It can make you feel good or cut you like a knife.
As a result, you may now want to try something new,
Or with an aspect of life, you may now be through.
You mull the comment over and take it to heart;
The speaker of the comment, unaware they’ve played a part.
The chances are that, of the comment, the speaker has forgotten,
But you are now left feeling really encouraged or really rotten.
Some comments are just throw-a-ways,
But they can easily make or break your day.
Some comments stick forever in your mind,
Whether they’re really hurtful or really kind.
Many years later, a comment you may still be able to quote;
It could be one which made you sink or one which made you float.
You will probably still be able to recall it word for word,
And even imitate the tone in which the comment was first heard.
As the result of a comment, you may feel better or worse,
And the speaker of the comment, you’ll either love or curse.
A comment can make you give up or give you the will to succeed;
Off one little comment, our further thoughts will often feed.
They can change the way that you see yourself,
And even have a good or bad effect on your health.
A bad comment can leave us feeling rather unsure,
Whereas a good comment, can leave us wanting more.
Just one comment, which may last only a few fleeting seconds,
May result in a whole new life, which suddenly now beckons.
You may leave your old life far behind,
Or a whole new life, you may now find.
So just take a moment and think before you speak;
Of the joy you may bring or the havoc you may wreak.

Taking over,

But, never go under it.

Life In Newspaper
Some life stop their life on newspaper.
some life loss their life on newspaper.
loss their life like a photograph.
Loss their life in a column of newspaper.
Loss their life in the lightening photo of star.
Speech of false leader.
Profile of high profile cader.
Photo of dustbin child.
Fulfil the newspaper.
Now life,
Now love,
Addvertisement of peace,
or humanity.
Everything u found here.
Now life loss his life in newspaper.
