Poems by Siegfried Sassoon
On Passing The New Menin Gate
... Paid, with a pile of peace-complacent stone, ...
Suicide in Trenches
... when soldier lads march by,Sneak home and pray you'll never knowThe hell where youth and laughter go ...
The Dreamers
... They think of firelit homes, clean beds, and wives ...
The Working Party
... rifle-shots Would split and crack and sing along the night, ...
