Is the poem In Flanders Fields pro or anti-war? Why?

'In Flanders Fields and Other Poems' focuses on the legacy of the Anzac soldiers, in particular, how their brave sacrifice paves the way for a better future. This is seen through the motif of passing on the torch. This is clearly seen in the optimistic quote "To you we throw the torch; be yours to hold it high." The overarching message of 'In Flanders Fields', 'The Anxious Dead' and 'The Warrior' is closely related to notions of legacy, as the poems triumphantly declare that that war heroes will never be forgotten. Although I would not emphatically state that it is a pro-war poem, I would say that its portrayal is positive, reflective, and repsectful.

prose poetry is written as prose, without the line breaks associated with poetry. However, it makes use of poetic devices such as fragmentation, compression, repetition, rhyme, metaphor, and figures of speech.
