TATOOED AND NUMBERED

He died So that the world would learn Did they? He died not upon a cross He died because he was a Jew. The world knew But cast away their collective eyes And their souls. He died, like six million others A horrible, rotten, stinking, putrid, fetid death His gold teeth plucked Lice and scabies infested him. His dignity stripped Humanity had taken a holiday. He died in an oven Knocked on his head Shoved three at a time Into an oven while still alive Can you imagine that? The horror of it all... And yet today, hard to believe That there are persons that calls themselves Historical revisionists (it never happened) A plague on them! So my uncle died for nothing? Alone, not on a cross He died because he was a Jew.
