In a poem by Archibald MacLeish, dead soldiers remind the living that they were young, gave their lives, and trusted future generations to give meaning to their deaths. The poet argues that the value of their sacrifice depends on what the living do afterward — whether they build peace, justice, and hope, or allow the sacrifice to become meaningless.
