Verse of the Living Dead

For want of a fuse, a circuit was lost.

For want of the circuit, containment was lost. 

For want of containment, a worker was lost.

When they touched the worker, the lab was lost.

When it spread from the lab, the city was lost.

To save the city, the soldiers were lost.

Because of the soldiers, we all were lost.

And all for the want of a junction-box fuse.
