This would have been a fantastic poem to write about in my GCSEs, however, it apparently shows mindless violence, and encourages youths to behave in a similar way. Pathetic. This poem would have to be one of my all time favourites, and yet brilliant poetry cannot be appreciated because it contains violence. Does that mean we should remove all films and books that contain violence as well? I cannot believe that this poem has been removed the the Anthologies.
