The Night of the Bayonet
The night was filled with dark and cold
When Sergeant Talbert, the story’s told
Pulled on his poncho and headed out
To check the lines dressed like a Kraut.
Upon a trooper, our hero came
Fast asleep, he called his name
Smith! Oh, Smith! Get up! It’s time
To take your place out on the line.
And Private Smith, so very weary
Cracked an eye all read and bleary
Then grabbed his gun, he did not tarry
Hearing Floyd but seeing Jerry.
Don't! cried Tab, It's me! and yet,
Smith charged, tout suite with bayonet.
He lunged, he thrust, both high and low
And skewered the boy from Kokomo.
Happy Gonorrhea Day!

Other Aprilers:
okay so, on the occasion of alton’s birthday imma just drop here this gifset of debatable quality that has been sitting in my drafts for about as long as the smokey/alton fic no one asked for that the gifset is related to (read: for years), and i’m gonna stare at it till my writer instinct kicks in and i edit it for posting... because this rare non-existent-pair has been living in my rotting brain rent-free ever since i saw the series, don’t get me started on how and why, and i am just that self-indulgent^^
anyway, don’t mind me here, i just miss the bob fandom and my tumblr times a lot. something something wanna bounce back bcs it was the best times or whatever.
