Synopsis
At this time of year, we dedicate the Fortnightly Poetry project to the fallen in war. This poem, written at a time when the average life expectancy of an officer at the front was a mere six weeks, vividly demonstrates a young officers expectation and acceptance of his own death. (Summary by Ruth Golding)
