The Flowers of Auswchwitz
It is my hell
That I revisit
Mine
The memory of it
My life
That has grown from it
Shall I not despise
This field of wildflowers
Riotous in colour
That dares grow
From this unholy ground?
It is a grave you decorate
Mass and massive
It is a smile you invite
And a sigh
Each tortured soul
With its very own floral headstone
There are no tears here
Where tears should be
No regret
No sorrow
No guilt
No indignation
It is as though we each
Are only single flowers
Clinging together
Desperately drawing attention
From the graveyard ...
