Auschwitz RoseAuschwitz Rose
by Michael R. Burch
There is a Rose at Auschwitz, in the briar,

Winter, 1948WINTER, 1948 [40 Saxton Street]
for W.W

bloodied laughter
collision to serve,
distance, drive and demolition
battle axe ambition in the wild air
muscle and mind joined in steeled instinct,
a stitched pigskin ball, the grail of the Fall
to fumble it means...

Ghost of Tsali ComesGhost Of Tsali Comes
Lost in mist and maze
Ghost of Tsali in the corn
River water runs
Colors of fall alive

Should'Ve Would'Ve Could'VeReality strikes
Almost in a dreamlike state
Slow motion
However sudden
Indifferent to any other
Dreams turned to nightmare
instantly
I feel so worthless
For some time now
A whore
A slut
Good for nothing
Ruined.
Not easy to acknowledge
But this is how you...

formerly almost democratic constitution,
Whether well read in organic silence
or not so screaming fascist tumored
rumor bad-humored
much.
Some days present easy milestone messages
to choose light-flowing life
While other days and nights
I feel forced to...
