Siegfried Sassoon - GolgothaSiegfried Sassoon - Golgotha
Work rating: Low


Through darkness curves a spume of falling flares   That flood the field with shallow, blanching light.    The huddled sentry stares    On gloom at war with white,    And white receding slow, submerged in gloom.  Guns into mimic thunder burst and boom,    And mirthless laughter rakes the whistling night.   The sentry keeps his watch where no one stirs   But the brown rats, the nimble scavengers.
