Civilization Down the Drain

In WW2 Sweden sheltered
    Jews in desperate need

  Today Swedes burn a Torah scroll
     a brutish, dastardly deed

Sad day for Sweden to do this Gershon. I also heard they iliminated cash and have gone cashless.

With multiculturalism now - it may not have been a Swede BUT A SO CALLED IMMIGRANT. All that is true in the world is disappearing fast. SuZ

The title of your poem says it all, Gershon. Where do we go from here? Hopefully upward and onward. Blessings, Shirley.
