War Poets

As I said before, I am not a big fan of war poetry, because it all seems pretty much the same to me. I do see the emotion behind it, and the prevailing themes present within these poets' work: hopelessness, death, despair, loss. One thing that I will give to war poetry is that it is very real, perhaps the even more real than other types of poetry, because it portrays stark, raw emotion to its very core.
