An Army Corps on the March –Trevor Krupp

This is a very deep poem about the bodies of the army men decaying men. In the middle of the poem, he repeats, “On and on, the dense bridges press on”. He also does not have any Rhyme or Rhythm. The first Line reads “With its cloud of skirmishers in advance.” I think this means then cloud of gunpowder that  is about the dead men.  The 6th line reads, “Glittering dimly toiling under the sun- the dust cover’d men”. He bodies her are getting covered by just and are getting burned by the sun. I think this also means that the men are getting forgotten about, which is a part of life. The last line is very important, “As the army corps advance.” I think this means the army body advances to get forgotten and decomposed.
