Dulce Et Decorum Est

This was a top 3 favorite poem for me because I am interested in war and it was a very raw poem in my opinion and portrayed the sick things that some people endure while in war. I liked the metaphors and they really set the tone of the poem (the cloud of gas was a sea) It wasn't what I expected because normally in war stories the people involved usually escape death or get hurt and pull through. But this one was different and showed the reality of fighting. The poem was well written and I was very pleased and it was worth the time spent reading and discussing it
