  1. well i thik a good one is surviviours, by Craig Lockhart, writte in october 1917.

    it's called survivours.

    No doubt the'll soon get well; the shock the strain

    Have caused their stammeing, disconnected talk.

    Of course they're 'longing to go out again.'-------

    These boys with old, scared faces, learning to walk.

    They'll soon forget their huanted nights; their cowed

    Subjection to the ghosts of friends who died,------

    Their dreams that drip with murder; and they'll be proud

    Of glourious war that shatter'd all their pride..

    Men who went out to battle, gri and glad;

    Children, with eyes that hate you, broken and mad.


  2. Wilfred Owen's  "Disabled"

    http://classiclit.about.com/library/bl-e...

    or

    Robert Graves' "When I'm Killed"

    http://www.daypoems.net/poems/2726.html


  3. "Dulce et decorum est" by Owen

    "Prelude: the troops" by Sassoon

    "The dead II" by Brooke

  4. "War and the Poet" Eberhart/Rodman.

    It is all in there.
