Soldier F said he only harmed
protesters who held bombs or arms
Soldier F had truths to hide
The soldier lied
Lord Saville said
none of the dead
had posed a threat
but that did not stop Soldier F
When one-and-twenty soldiers shoot
then why no prospect to prosecute
Soldier L or Soldier M
who killed a lad who crawled from them?
Or Soldier P or Soldier E
on their shooting spree
with Soldier J?
They shot men dead as they ran away
Can’t exonerate them all
Soldier F can take the fall
Army brass repel all boarders
Close ranks round those who gave the orders
Families bereft
No trust is left
Is justice deaf?
Soldier F
