Many had lost their bootsBut limped on, blood-shod. All went lame; all blind;Drunk with fatigue; deaf even to the hootsOf disappointed shells that dropped behind.GAS! Gas! Quick, boys!-- An ecstasy of fumbling,Fitting the clumsy helmets just in time;But someone still was yelling out and stumblingAnd floundering like a man in fire or lime.--Dim, through the misty panes and thick green lightAs under a green sea, I saw him drowning.In all my dreams, before my helpless sight,He plunges at me, guttering, choking, drowning.If in some smothering dreams you too could paceBehind the wagon that we flung him in,And watch the white eyes writhing in his face,His hanging face, like a devil's sick of sin;If you could hear, at every jolt, the bloodCome gargling from the froth-corrupted lungs,Obscene as cancer, bitter as the cudOf vile, incurable sores on innocent tongues,--My friend, you would not tell with such high zestTo children ardent for some desperate glory,The old Lie: Dulce et decorum estPro patria mori.11 "It is sweet and right to die for your country."  Using the poem and your knowledge of World War I, write an essay that addresses the following:           • Explain the aspects of fighting during World War I that Wilfred Owen discusses in his poem.           • How do you think experiencing these things impacted Wilfred Owen?           • Why do you think Wilfred Owen decided to write this poem?           • How did reading this poem help you better understand the impacts of World War I?Use details to support your response. 3. The events of World War I raised significant questions regarding human rights and international justice.
