Anti-war poem- Note from nam
Note from Nam
This poem supports anti-war because it is talking about how heartbreaking and tragic it is for someone to get a a note that tells you your family member is dead.
the Father finds it hard to swallow
the unspeakable lump in his throat
the crumpled note, stuck to his fingers:
"Your son died in gallant service
to his country (and Yours)..."
and He says He never felt the pain
says he 'put it aside', deep inside
his brain, and never cried;
so he figures he got it down,
ya know, got around it, somehow-- beat
the insane train to the crossing
where blame waits for death
on the rails of a world gone off the tracks
pity the Fathers, all,
cause they know (its a game, and)
just how bad
they have ****ed-it-up.

News articles/reports
Tom Hayden was a politician and activist and wrote this is 2013. He was a antiwar activist when he traveled to Hanoi, Vietnam in 1965. This article supports my postition because he went and visited Vietnam after the war and met some people and looked at war sites.

October 22, 1967 a crowd of peaceniks and other people were protesting against the vietnam war at the pentagon. This article supports my position on anti-war because they were trying to express how they disliked the war and fighting.
