Holocaust

Holocaust After the war - late forties and the fiftyish Magazines often published grizzly pictures Of Jews being murdered for being Semitic. Newspapers and magazines do not publish Such photos anymore- perhaps rightly,- They may give us nightmares. Two old men and a boy standing at the edge Of a mass grave, the three held their hands Modestly over their genitalia. German soldiers around and a civilian man With a hunting rifle he was there To bag a Jew. What happened to the civilian after the war? Probably he survived and lived a long life Somewhere in the Alps. We, how have seen black & white photos Of the truth will never forget.
