A Short Bus Ride from Town
We visited Auschwitz and Birkenau
concentration camps in Poland outside Krakow.
Auschwitz looks like a clean collage campus,
but Birkenau was drenched in death,
misery,
fingernail scratch in wood,
white bone chips in dirt you walk on
lining the bottom of the stream,
even the soft wind whisper in the slow moving trees
seemed sinister.
For willful dispension of disbelief
sorrow knows no words.
