Shoah Never Again: The Jewish Holocaust Experience and Selected Poems
An evocative collection of poetry describing the plight of Holocaust survivors, sensitively written by an African American man whose own ancestors had suffered the horrors of slavery, in tribute to those who also endured excruciating loss at the hands of madmen — and in respectful celebration of those who survived.
SHOAH NEVER AGAIN
A man spends his whole life giving all that he can To his mother, father, sister, brother, Wife, children and friends. He never thought there were those Who would seek to make him cry, Then take away his freedom, and plot to see him die. One by one, life after life, as if we didn’t count, We worked as slaves, we kings and queens Six million Jews stamped out. His proud people, brought down by force And pushed into the wind, Waited for God to save them from this dreadful, wicked sin. Schindler’s List was just a few, When we think of the family we had, If evil men had chosen love, instead of going mad. But never again will we be made to slave for any man, We’re on our guard, we’ll do our part Our future we must defend. Once again we’ve found the strength to build and carry on, To raise our kids, to teach them well Show them the world’s their home. Must we forgive, yet never forget The dark, deep hell we’ve been Together we’ll stand and vow for life that Shoah, no never again.
