Family Informed
A sheet of paper; a telephone call
Family informed.
Breaking news; MOD confirms
Family informed.
Anonymity uncovered; soldier named
Family informed.
One happy life ends, a sad one begins:
Family deformed.
An old room is emptied, a new grave now filled:
Family deformed.
A soul rests in peace; a parent, the spectre of torment:
Family deformed.
Family informed:
Casual: rather matter of fact, indeed.
Family deformed:
Reality: the fact of the matter, in deed!
