Question

Read the following excerpt from the poem:

“How magnificent the war is!

How eager and efficient!

Early in the morning

it wakes up the sirens

and dispatches ambulances

to various places

swings corpses through the air

rolls stretchers to the wounded

summons rain from the eyes of mothers.

It produces the most questions

in the minds of children

and urges families to emigrate.”
