"merciless iced east winds"

"but nothing happens"

waiting around/boredom at war creates paranoia, tension
government's ignorance to conditions (decided by few, affects many)
war isn't all action... Owen's intention for the poem was to highlight the harsh truth of war
relentless, no progression despite deaths

"less deadly than the air that shudders black with snow"

"wind's nonchalance"

"we cringe in holes"

"ghosts drag home... sunk fires glozed with crusted dark-red jewels"

"shutters and doors, all closed: on us the doors are closed"

shut out in the cold
the terrible conditions are not shown to the public = insignificance and reason for Owen's writing... EXPOSE these conditions

"frost will fasten on the mud and us"
