Incongruous
Eighteen year olds die in war
But are not allowed a drink
This taboo is judicial flaw
Most incongruous, I think
Befitting Alice's looking glass
In her fantasy wonderland
Many screwball laws have passed
By those in high command
If old enough for the battle cry
They're old enough to guzzle
We shouldn't them, their drinks deny
Let's remove their guzzling muzzle
