Holocaust Poetry

The Ghetto

I was in my house one day
Then, a knock on the door.
I was taken away when the kids were in bed.
I was gone.
The kids woke up,
Looked around.

Then, when the Nazis came back
My kids were missing too.
They were in the streets.
They took the kids to me.
Then one night, they took all the kids
They gassed them.  

Misery.
Hate.
Prejudice.
