When the English curriculum changed at the tech college where I was an adjunct (stay around 16 years and a lot changes), I had to change from the Short-Story-Drama-Poetry format. But I always managed to use some poetry to meet the standards of Rhetoric.
Facing It was one of five or so war poems that I used. It was the one that students related to the most. Perhaps they had a family member who was in Vietnam, maybe because the poet is African-American, also the writing is so effective. The interplay between the War and the speaker's visiting the Vietnam Memorial is stunning.
