The poem has a huge connection to All Quiet. It talks about how they fought on the front line, still fighting without legs. Especially the second part about the gas. In the story, Paul said that the masks were very uncomfortable and not entirely reliable the first few minutes when one put them on. The poem goes on to say how they were choking and drowning in the gas.

In my opinion, the poem was...okay, but I really like All Quiet much better.
