Inhumanity Poems

Mouthless

I have seen a lot in this life,
The only thing I haven't seen is that which doesn't exist,
I have seen a lot in this life,
That which my mouth cannot explain.

Tell us what you saw Mr. Stephen,
What is it you saw that Troubles you,
Did you see the rainbow or seven colours of madness,
Tell us Mr. Ekemezie

JUSTICE

Is this really worth it
To be a woman in a country like this
Where we are forced to shut our scream
How will any girl see any dream
Multiple cases of assault and rape
But still many say it's all fake
Is there any more way to gain your trust
Many lost their lives..is it really worth 
The scars which u

     we have food for 12 billion
      we only feed 8 billion...
 it's not capitalism, it's pure cruelty

Administration '25

They're knocking at me door
In the middle of the night
They're knocking at me door
Giving me an awful fright.

They taking me
To a camp where
Ashes fall like black snow.

I'll not be overjoyed
By goose-stepping boys 
With boots to their knees, oh hey,
And brown shirts and billy clubs
Cheese grater belly rubs
Coming to take me away.

Have You Been?

Have you been
Hiking the  Quiraing trail on the isle of Skye?
watching golden eagles as they fly by?
Have you been
Hiking through fields of paintbrush on Mount Hood?
From Trillium Lake to Timberline, if you haven't you should.
Have you been
Pushing a frontier, discovering the new
Being all you can be, pursuing every clue?
Have you been
Locked in a small

All mammals made of carbon too'  walk and live some are; confined to zoo's, a manmade place to observe
And gather; revenue in that preserve' yet now a human

The Fall

Planning for my fall was a priority
Trying to destroy my purity
Forgetting about my ability
Their act of inhumanity
Made me discover their inferiority
And decided to bring it to reality

Had to work hard to strengthen my security
Since all this happened trying to fight for equality
Challenges came in for my prosperity
Godly renowned my superiority

Poem by
Muzungu Noela

Ken, Anne and Eleanor

The Holocaust was a reminder to us…
besides being a most horrific crime…
that dark forces of evil and intolerance 
have been flowing since the dawn of time.

If you want a sampling of how cruel and inhuman 
we, who call ourselves human, can be…
I’ll be frank…watch Ken Burns’s ‘The U. S. 
and the Holocaust’ and read Anne’s

Inhumanity

Farm laborer
Produces
Food for you and me;
Commits suicide
Owing hunger and
Non repayable debt...
We accumulate
His grains
Eat
Waste...

(Every day, 28 people dependent on farming die by suicide in India)

Man's Inhumanity

The inhumanity of Man is really quite atrocious.
He thinks himself intelligent, he thinks himself precocious.
And yet his acts of selfishness show inately he's unkind.
His sudden acts of cruelty can boggle lesser minds.

No animal will torture before it finally kills;
But Mankind on the other hand can really give one chills.
He loves to feel the power that

Meeting Inhumanity In a Dark Alley

I wanted to think there was a sliver of human in those eyes
But I could not find it. 
They were bleak, desolate.

The energy he exuded was potent and evil.
If he was not the devil, he was high in the ranks of hell.
I could not bear his stare.

I was reminded of every dark alley I had

Ber Horvitz Translations of Holocaust Poems

Translations of Holocaust poems by Ber Horvitz aka Ber Horowitz

Der Himmel
"The Heavens"
by Ber Horvitz
loose translation/interpretation by Michael R. Burch
 
These skies
are leaden, heavy, gray ...
I long for a pair
of deep blue eyes.
 
The birds have fled
far overseas;
tomorrow I’ll migrate too,
I said ...
 
These gloomy autumn days
it rains and rains.
Woe to the bird
Who remains ...

Ko Un Translation of the Holocaust Poem Speechless

Speechless at Auschwitz
by Ko Un
loose translation/interpretation by Michael R. Burch

At Auschwitz
piles of glasses
mountains of shoes ...
returning, we stared out different windows.

Ko Un speaks for all of us, by not knowing what to say about the evidence of the Holocaust, and man's inhumanity to man. 

Ko Un was speechless at Auschwitz.
Someday, when it’s too late,
will we

Neglect

Neglect
by Michael R. Burch

What good are your tears?
They will not spare the dying their anguish.
What good is your concern
to a child sick of living, waiting to perish?

What good, the warm benevolence of tears
without action?
What help, the eloquence of prayers,
or a pleasant benediction?

Before this day is gone,
how many more will die
with bellies swollen, wasted limbs,
and eyes
