| Notes | As the title indicates, this poem focuses on a combatant's experience of World War I, with explicit references to no-man's land and the war front in the Netherlands. The Boer War is also referenced. The first-person speaker makes explicit references to his rural upbringing in Killeeshil, County Tyrone. |
