War Poems

What many war poems are trying to tell us is : war is bad , don't join it. But we must come to realise that war is irriversible and it is undeniable that a war may occur again. Even though we learn history to reverse the undesirable effects of war and learn from our past mistakes.In the poem "disabled" , we can see the devastation the world has cause upon him. The soldier was once young. He had many girls who love him and he was strong with good looks. However , after the war , he was disabled and weak , with no one loving him anymore. This shows us that war has undesirable effects on the persona. However , there are also poems which a are highly patriotic and conveys the exact opposite message: War is good and great. What we must remember however , is that the war is never great , but we also must see that not everyone hates war. The atrocious effects of war can be seen greatly with the many death and blood in the poem "redeployment" and other poems to show that war was not good.
