Comments : The Proud Soldier

  • Really good poem. I have a friend who just got sent to Irak and his mom can't believe it happened. But anyway, I loved every word you chose to describe it. I felt all the hate you described in this. I absolutely loved it. Good job! 5/5

    I like the point of view this poem takes, it's different from most of the stuff I read about wars and soldiers. It's proud yet angry. Nice combination. My favourite stanza is:

    "Their deaths would all be in vain
    Because of your mistake
    But no matter what you do
    Their pride will never break."

    Rhyme felt a little forced at times but otherwise this was great,

    Really good.

    Tells the story of our messed up societies views on war perfectly.

    Keep up the good work!
