Behind the Scenes of a War-torn State

     The doctor’s practice went to waste
        the moment that the medic faced
     A call from his reserve platoon
        to fight a battle all too soon  

     The CEO of Pharma-Tech
        would leave behind all hands on deck
     When his brigade came calling him
        he knew the war was no mere whim

     The principal of my kids’ school
        had fought the call, but overruled
     He swiftly left his chair unmanned
        The army had ripped up his plans  

     ‘Coz ev’ry year since 'forty-eight
        Disruption's marred the Jewish State
