The Last Train To Auschwitz Poetry Contest

As the

Last Train to Auschwitz

Stopped and came to a halt

And the soon to be dead exited
the train and entered under 
the camp's gate's

Those aboard i fear probably
knew both their and the train's 
fates we're entwined

One final journey terminating
at the end of the track's

Under a puff of steam
and stench of ashen smog

One final shower aghast

Then death and returned back
unto his or her God's merciful arms

For K.M.N
