Hustling the East

July 17th, 2009 by Syd Walker

July 2009: record death toll for invading troops in an eight year war... who's counting Afghan casualties?

And the end of the fight is a tombstone white
With the name of the late deceased,
And the epitaph drear:
“A fool lies here
Who tried to hustle the East”

- Excerpt from ‘Songs from Books‘
Joseph Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936)

And the end of the fight is a tombstone white With the name of the late deceased, And the epitaph drear: “A fool lies here Who tried to hustle the East”
