Wilfred Owen

In one of the comments, our pal Badtux left a poem by Wilfred Owen about disabled soldiers. Mr. Owen is known for his poetry about the horror of war, and also for being killed in action one week before the end of World War One, The War To End All Wars, which apparently was not an accurate prediction.

Here are his War Poems & Manuscripts. They are as apropos today as they were then. Start anywhere. Liquid alert - it'll be comin' out of your eyes in sorrow and rage.
