The bulldozers plowed the remains <br />Into a ditch <br />Dreams crunching into memories <br />Tumbling over possibilities <br />Beliefs popping out of sockets <br />Hopes breaking 'neath the crush of <br />Soiled humanity <br />The stench enough to water the eyes of God <br />Who said nothing <br />Waiting for someone to be a prayer. <br /> <br /> <br />(Previously published in Poets 4 Peace, Nov 2000; Poetry Superhighway, Yom Hashoah Issue #10, Apr 2008)<br /><br />Laurence Overmire<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/auschwitz/
