Dulce Et Decorum Est

The final Latin line in the poem, "Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori" translates into "How sweet and fitting it is to die for one's country" and comes from the Roman Poet, Quintus Horatius Flaccus.

For those interested, the full stanza that this line comes from is this.

Dulce et decorum est pro patria mori:
(How sweet and fitting it is to die for one's country:)
mors et fugacem persequitur virum
(Death pursues the man who flees)
nec parcit inbellis iuventae
(spares not the hamstrings or cowardly backs)
poplitibus timidoque tergo.
(Of battle-shy youths.)

Ode III 2.13

Soldier's Dream

When I was in school, many years ago now, it was a compulsory part of the curriculum for pupils to study WW1 poetry and the work of Wilfred Owen and Siegfried Sassoon has always stuck with me.

Since I've found some of their poems in a suitable format, I thought I'd share them here as I don't know how well known they are outside of the UK and I thought that you guys might find it interesting.

Zdzisław Beksiński: No Official Title: Behold A Pale Rider

<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zdzis%C5%82aw_Beksi%C5%84ski">Zdzisław Beksiński</a> was a famous Polish artist who specialised in creating dark fantasy paintings, sculptures and staged photographs.

Beksiński was a prolific artist who left a lot of his work untitled, meaning that sometimes his pieces get confused for others and vice versa.

Although his art was often of a highly disturbing nature, Beksiński himself said that there was no deeper meaning in his art and that it was simply what he liked creating.

Zdzisław Beksiński: No Official Title: Cronus Devours His Sons

I could have probably chosen a better secondary title, but it's just such a surreal thing that it's hard to point at one thing and go.

"Hah, that'll send someone down the rabbit hole that is the Nightmare Fuel gallery."

It only occurs to me as I'm about to hit the upload button that I've accidently made a Dark Souls reference.

I'm just going to pretend that I did that on purpose.

William Utermohlen's Self-Portraits Prior (1967) And Post-Diagnosis of Alzheimer's Disease (1997 and 2000 respectively).

These self-portraits are made by the American artist William Utermohlen (1933-2007) and they show how Alzheimer's Disease (or Dementia in general) can negatively affect your mind and mess with your motor skills at the time they were made since his diagnosis in 1995. In his 2000 self-portrait, you can see William with a dejected expression, knowing not only he can barely recognize his own face but also fully aware that he's going to die due to the complications of Alzheimer's. Truly heart-breaking.

GREATER LOVE Rolling and rolling there Where God seems not to care: WILFRED OWEN Adapted by George Pratt Your dear voice is not dear, Gentle, and evening clear, And though your hand be pale, As theirs whom none now hear, Paler are all which trail Red lips are not so red As the stained stones kissed by the English dead. Kindness of wooed and wooer Šeems shame to their love pure. Your cross through flame and hail: O Love, your eyes lose lure When I behold eyes blinded in my stead! Your voice sings not so soft, Though even as wind murmuring through raftered loft,- Weep, you may weep, Till the fierce love they bear Cramps them in death's extreme decreptitude. Your slender attitude Heart, you were never hot Now earth has stopped their piteous mouths that coughed Trembles not exquisite like limbs knife-skewed, Nor large, nor full like hearts made great with shot; for you may touch them not.
