Poets Against War continues the tradition of socially engaged poetry by creating venues for poetry as a voice against war, tyranny and oppression.

Chaplin

I dress one over the other

And twist it around my neck

I cut its leg to fit

I fasten the bootlaces



But still they are loose fitting,

The boots are very large

And the stern face of Charlie Chaplin,

And my friend, in this rifle pit

Never does not laugh at me.
