But perhaps Owen's finest work is the haunting Strange Meeting, which tells the tale of two soldiers, from opposite sides of the war, who are both killed and meet again in hell.
Probably Owen's three most well-known poems are Apologia pro Poemate Meo, the remarkable Anthem for Doomed Youth, and the great anti-patriotic verse Dulce Et Decorum Est.

 A Literary Writer's Perspective *Writers Write -- The IWJ*
Owen also breaks from the pretty language prevalent in the poetry of his day to show his society the awful images of real and not romantically heroic war.
