His Jewish Face

His Jewish Face. All of a sudden we no longer had names, a gold star on our coats to make us feel ashamed. All of a sudden they branded our arms, numbers in ink like herds being farmed. All of a sudden no homes did we own, what money we had in our coats we had sewn. All of a sudden no friends that we knew would acknowledge us now they could not know a Jew. All of a sudden to ghettos we were led, where we met with starvation no food to be fed. All of a sudden they came with their tanks, their soldiers on foot and their high Commandants. All of a sudden as the trains then grew near, they divided us from the ones we held so dear. All of a sudden as the trains pulled away, we knew that on earth this would be our last day, Then; All of a sudden because of our 'chosen' race, we met with Our Lord with his own Jewish Face.
