Dulce et Decorum Est

Dulce et Decorum Est

When this assignment was given I was not sure which piece of literature was my favorite.  I looked at the titles on the syllabus and I remembered how much I enjoyed “Dulce et Decorum Est” written by Wilfred Owen.  After reading “Dulce et Decorum Est” the first time I found it immediately appealing.  This poem grabbed my attention more than any of the other selections we have read thus far, making it my favorite.  This is unusual to me because ordinarily I don’t like poetry or so I thought.  There are a few characteristics of this poem that make it appealing to me.  First and for-most is the graphic imagery that Owen brings to life.  I haven’t before read such amazing descriptions as the ones found in this poem.  Next, the topic of war caught my attention.  Finally the message he relays in his poem.  His message is that it is a lie to think that dieing for ones country is “sweet and fitting.”
This entire piece is full of vivid descriptions of war, specifically World War I.  This first line paints a stunning picture of the
