In this poem we can apreciate the horroific imagery which describes war, it is about a gas attack during world war 1.
The purpose of this poem was to protest against the mentality that war gives us. At the beggining of the poem they describe a single terrible moment of the war, and then they explained the significance or moral of the incident.The describe the moment of the gas atacked and said they have to wear masks and i think someone didn t had he chance to put it on so he died.
