Auschwitz

No more the wretched screams of pain are heard within this place We walk here with the ghosts of they who ever haunt this space This godforsaken abattoir, this slaughter house of shame Remembered in far distant land with one eternal flame. No birds sing here nor pass in flight, Life pauses at the gate The silence of the grave abides within this fence of hate And even from the hardest heart it screams the question why The ovens yawn their dreadful truth that bleeds tears from the eye. A cold and dreadful ambiance is trapped within this wire Imagined sounds of shuffling feet of those consigned to fire The chambers shame in silence bears, the horror that befell What evil, Godless, twisted mind, designed this ordered Hell What awful thought, what sick warped mind, imagined such as this Where hid the souls, who sold their friends, betrayed with Judas kiss Repentant tears can never cleanse, this stain that mars this land Nor Pilate’s basin, wash the blame, from bigots bloody hands The earnest prayer of all who stand in silent witness here, Cries Justice for six million lives, destroyed by Facist fear This manufactured hell hole, this mark of Cain defined This everlasting edifice, of disgrace and shame enshrined
