Siegfried Sassoon - The Road To RuinSiegfried Sassoon - The Road To Ruin
Work rating: Medium


    My hopes, my messengers I sent     Across the ten years continent     Of Time. In dream I saw them go--     And thought, `When they come back I`ll show     To what far place I lead my friends     Where this disastrous decade ends.`     Like one in purgatory, I learned     The loss of hope. For none returned,     And long in darkening dream I lay.     Then came a ghost whose warning breath     Gasped from an agony of death,     `No, not that way; no, not that way.`
