  • Anthem for Doomed Youth- Wilfred Owen
  • What passing-bells for these who die as cattle?
  • Only the monstrous anger of the guns.
  • Only the stuttering rifles' rapid rattle
  • Can patter out their hasty orisons.
  • No mockeries now for them no prayers nor bells,
  • Nor any voice of mourning save the choirs,--
  • The shrill, demented choirs of wailing shells
  • And bugles calling for them from sad shires.
  • What candles may be held to speed them all?
  • Not in the hands of boys, but in their eyes
  • Shall shine the holy glimmers of good-byes.
  • The pallor of girls' brows shall be their pall
  • Their flowers the tenderness of patient minds,
  • And each slow dusk a drawing-down of blinds.
