He Told Us
He told us that someday shortly we'd be moved
But he never told us where
He mentioned that we would be delighted in our room
Not like he would care
His harsh commands were clearer than the sky, on a sunny, cloudless day
"Get in the damn glowing boxcars"
With the gory, gross conditions
I would barely even budge
He told us persistently
"Get out you dreadful Jews"
And we did hear
For if we didn't obey the next bad thing would surely happen
He told us that nourishment would be good
If we awaited calm and patiently
And when we were presented with the expected meal
We had no hesitation of what or how to chow down the gracious hot, roasted turkey meal
He said to a monstrous group each lengthy day
"Go to the tail end of the shadowy warehouse and see the fortunate dogs"
The rest of us sat and pondered
Who would arrive back alive looking like a fiery red, extremely bloody, half-alive soul.
He explained we would regulate to the powerful sounds of the horror in the "graveyard"
All the deafening screams, hurting moans, and blaring cries
When a single whit didn't tolerate the pitches of the sounds
They were carried away to the flesh-eating dogs
He stared and chuckled in excitement when one parish
I knew not to even express a mood about his doings
But when the time came that my honorable mother passed from the harsh conditions
I felt worthless, shedding enormous tears
He said, "There was no flee from this obscene place"
But I was ascertain to discover a escape course
I would find that route
NO MATTER WHAT!
And then a restless day following
In the gloomy night hours
I discovered that route to freedom
Hopefully
I crawled past the security guard
Crept and said my last good-byes to my fellow mates
Then flung that brick hard door open
And ran faster than the speed of the wind to my gorgeous aunts house
He said while laughing positively, "If you try to leave, its impossible"
But I attempted and flourished
And miraculously
I showed him very incorrect
Today I'm breathing with liveliness to inform you of my story
Yet still frightened and devastated by those severely unpleasant days, I spent in that cold crammed cell
And memorize to never heed to what "he" may tell you to do
For he DIDN'T EVEN CARE!
