Never again
Tracy Mcfayden 1965 (Hull)
It happened we know it did,
One culture virtually annihilated,
Why??????
For being different that's why,
One man blamed everything on them,
Thought of them as sub human,
Something to get rid off,
Spouting evil his tenticles reaching far and wide,
Others started to believe his evil,
They where shoved into ghettos,
Made to wear a yellow star,
It was not enough he wanted them dead,
Walked to pits and shot dead,
Shoved into cattle cars going to camps,
Left or right ment life or death,
Gas chambers at the ready,
Romani gypsies, homosexuals those physically and mentally disabled murdered too,
God why????
His name is well known,
Those murdered their names forgotten,
Prey to all the gods of the world ..... never again.
About this poem
77 years ago Auschwitz was liberated. What was found was unbelievable the suffering the death the walking skeletons. Some didn't believe what was been shown and told. But it did happen and it must never happen again. Tell your children your grandchildren the future generations need to know so it is never forgotten.
