you got that right!

Hate to say this, but your poems' wrong. It's "tired, outstripped five-nines that dropped behind" at the end of the first stanza.

Good job though.

a very monotonous reading, there is no emotion or heart in the reciting. i'm sure you meant well, and there's nothing you can do about your accent, but i have unfortunately been left with a bitter taste, and can't help but see some level of mockery, or at least a deep undermining, of the seriousness of the content.

Paint ball masks arent gas masks and some place in a cud county of america isn't flanders fields or the Somme. I feel that i have no right to comment on what has been experienced by those brave soles who died heroically and pointlessly. But please dont read wilfred owen in that accent again as it truly destroys all the emotion all the feeling and the sacrafice he and many many many others made. Be a poet, capture the futility.

Firstly thank you for your kind comments on my version of this poem. I did enjoy your version for a few reasons- Firstly it is very well read, You put a lot of feeling into it. I also liked how you got the smoke going in the gas scene.

It's nice to see that no matter a persons age, the horrors of the past have not been forgotten and as such this honours the memory of all ho have ever died proctecing what was right. Well done guys.
