Oh To Be a Humble Sparrow

Oh how I wish I was a humble sparrow So cheerful and so free Flying high through the sky Instead of living in hell in constant fear In a barbedwire cage Waiting to die. ''Let us not forget not only the Jews, but the Gypsy's,Jehovah's witnesses, political opponents, homosexuals, Russians, disabled, the elderly,children, and sick, anti Nazi's and more. To forget all or any of these groups of people, would be a crime in it'self, and undervalues their suffering and existence. Let the truth be told, we must never forget.'' Peter Dome.
