SAD ANTI-WAR SATIRE:
MUSICAL UNDERPINNINGS: "Desperado", The Eagles, 1973. "Desperado" is also the name of the second studio album recorded by the band.
SATIRE COMPOSED: Giorgio Coniglio, March 2018.
PARODY-WORDLINK: The original story was encountered as a 60th anniversary reprise by the Charleston SC daily newspaper Post and Courier. Another take on this interesting episode has been twisted into limerick verse by Giorgio in a 3-stanza poem HERE.
PARODY-SONGLINK: The same tune was used as the vehicle for a parody song posted in 2014 entitled "Macadamias".
