A Comparison Of Two War Poems By Wilfred Owen

Wilfred Owen is a well renowned anti war poet. He wrote about his experience during “The Great War”. When the war broke out, he was teaching English to a family in France and when he went back to England, he was caught up in the enlisting hype. He held back and did not enlist because he felt the war had nothing to do with him, though later on, after much pressure, he joined up believing it was his duty to go and fight. 
	He served out on the front line for many months and he fought very bravely, surviving the Battle of the Somme. He was awarded a Military Cross for his efforts. On one particular raid, a shell landed near him and he was shell-shocked. He was sent back to England where he was transferred to Craiglockhart War Hospital in Scotland to be treated. 
	At Craiglockhart, Owen heard that a published poet, Siegfried Sassoon, was undergoing treatment at the hospital and he decided to meet him. Owen introduced himself and told Sassoon of his poetic interest. Sassoon asked to see Owen’s work and was very impressed. They collaborated and Owen improved his poetic skills and abilities. Sassoon suggested that
