Hit and Missile 0366

A missile 'somewhere in Irak',
whose bite's as bad as is its bark,
is activated, fiery tail
computers track. Its progress trail
identified, another spark
ignites: the 'Patriot' can't fail!
When all is over, and the mark
attained, it seems an easy lark.
Should some scud through, objective nail,
statistics help each future sale!

(22 January 1991)
