'Do Not Weep Maiden, for War Is Kind\r'

'â€Å"Do Not Weep, Maiden, for fight is Kind,” was written by the poet Stephen Crane. The poem is a rancor and emotional protest of the horrors of warfargon. It gets much of its strength from victimisation simple but highly descriptive linguistic process in contrast with innocence, and in exchangeable manner through the spend of repetition and sarcasm. The poet portrays bitterness and innocence in the premier stanza.\r\nIt is strongly shown in the personal c trigger-happyit lines â€Å"Do not weep, inaugural, for war is kind, because your lover threw wild hands towards the sky” (1-2). The maiden is obviously a grieving woman who has standard the terrible news of the loss of her lover. It is however the hotshot of description in the second line which is elicited from the word â€Å"wild” that really describes the awful, vivid morsel of death.\r\nConstant repetition throughout the poem is also utilized for maximum effect, in particular the late sarc astic phrase â€Å"war is kind” and the line â€Å"do not weep” which works head to emphasize the objective of the poem by reject the passions of war. The machine of war marches on like a great â€Å"Battle-God” but it is the poor souls who are leftover behind who suffer. It is the mourning wives, girlfriends and children who are left with nonentity but memories of the brave soldiers who have accustomed their lives to the killer machine.\r\nThe flashiness of war is ridiculed in this poem. terminology and phrases such as” booming drums of regiment” (6) and the â€Å" fleet blazing flag of the regiment, eagle with crest of red and gold” (18-19) have a strong, orderly and semiofficial glory which is deeply contrasted to that of suffering displayed throughout the poem. The locomote tragedy of the story draws to a rapid endpoint with the mother whose humble labor has now produced nothing but a shroud for her son to evasiveness in, along w ith the other thousand corpses.\r\nTo further promote the point home Crane uses the pronoun of â€Å"your” to directly impact to the reader. In many ways this type of song is a type of silent protest of war. It is an flavour that has the ability to really get to the heart of the mooring as much as a birdcall protest. Even if war is an ever present purview of society, works such as these ensure that its full-strength horrors never fade. By reading such poem we ensure that even if the brave fallen are gone, they are not forgotten.\r\n'
