Silhouette in the Sunset: One Hundred Poems on the Futility of War

by Colin Ward

Overview

Shed all the tears for one-hundred more years,
but our compass is now moral-rotten.
How dare we proclaim each year just the same when each war says we've all long forgotten?

Silhouette in the Sunset has been created in tribute to the 100th year anniversary of the end of World War One. It is an unashamed pacifist voice throughout, written from a philosophical, social, political, and personal perspective.
I hope to have captured a range of expression through rhythm, form, language and imagery, raising more questions than ever attempting to offer answers or solutions. Perhaps one major theme is how it seems increasingly difficult in this morally fractured world to truly differentiate between friend and foe.
