I'm looking for this poem that I read in high school for use in a college class, but I can't find it! It was in an anthology book in my high school's library, which is of course now not anywhere near me!
The poem is approximately 20-30 lines long, and it talks about how old men talk and tell the children about war, and when the second world war starts, they all enlist. It basically paints the older generation as talking up the war, and the children as ignoring the lessons of the first war... The last line ends in "and they went" or something like that.
Any leads?
