This picture shows a text from the poem of T.S. Eliot’s “The Waste Land”. In the poem, it talks about how the “side effects” of postwar trauma and how it affects society. It also shows how Eliot uses the word “Wasteland” to show the power that World War I had on the world. Throughout the poem, it shows the different perspectives on life after the war. In “Dulce Et Decorum Est” it talks about a person should “ride or die” for one’s country but many people don’t know the effects on the outside of war. It also shows how it affects everyday people in areas that war is going on in. For example, it shows how everyday citizens need to be “cautious” and “looking for certain alarms or sirens to listen for while people are out fighting. It also shows that regular citizens help soldiers without even knowing it. For example, they would have food donations and personal items to be sent to the soldiers so they can have some type of remembrance of their home.
