Lee Miller Holocaust Photographer

Lee Miller took risks which enabled her to see The world through the saddest of lenses Taking her to places where spirits were sobbing She was ahead of her time, and it took a toll For the camera, she wears a cloak mask Showing the photographer only what she wants him to see Her nightmares held her hostage As she recalled the evilness of Nazi concentration camps The optimism of children’s butterfly pictures not being enough to dispel the hatred and horror she could not eliminate She risked herself To bring truth to the world A brave and honorable woman Who could not drowned the memories of these atrocious acts of violence against humanity.
