  • this AS level exam is defo going to be the death of me

  • senseless waste of life, indeed... but i think owen's here pointing to the senselesness OF life... all life, and death... "WAS it for this the clay grew tall?" how can one help but wonder, confronted with death, and the dead?

  • Thankyou just the right tone for this very sad poem.

    Kind Regards

    Jim Clark
