S3 'The Last Laugh'--over to you!

Today we turned to more creative tasks after having spent some time on a critical essay examining Owen's 'The Last Laugh'.

Your task was to create a poem on the subject of war which uses personification to give power to the war machinery. The aim was three stanzas' worth of fine poetry, and some of you are there already, and in the redrafting stages.

One big thing we learned about was how poets break sentences for effect (remember: no paragraphs in poetry!).
