Matthew Anish Poet Blank verse

The Last Jew On Earth

The last Jew on Earth 
after the flames killed millions
Decides to speak up 
and declare 
his joy in living
The last Jew on Earth 
plays a game few remember 
A short time ago 
Someone told me the spiritual 
overcomes the material 
Listening to beautiful music 
I tend to believe it 
Our eyes were made for seeing
Our hearts for seeking peace

Elizabeth Wesley October 6, 2011 at 6:39 PM I'm wondering if this is a verse for the halocaust. Intriguing write on such an event filled with sorrow - man's inhumanity to man for sure. The last line speaks of a heart everyone needs.
