Unanswered Questions
(Tribute to Holocaust victims)
Why do I still hear
crying of lost children?
Why do I see fear
in the eyes of parents?
Why do I feel coldness
of hearts and rifles?
Why do I smell smoke
and foul stench of hatred?
What could I have done?
It wasn’t my time!
YOU chose my being
and YOU closed me in it!
Do matters of spirit
imprison the body?
Or does the body
imprison the spirit?
