__**Deceit**__

Its a trick  blind, hungry trains   where is god worried Rabbi   prisoners marched   screaming families   where were are they taking us   kids friends hardships lies we had to hide  gas chambers for jewelry smugglers   we knew that from here we will not come out anymore I want to be treated like a human being! Auschwitz  I'm not going to die, and i won't die here   mousetrap German police use barbarity  they made us sing prayers   while they laughed, and beat us    Nazi flag factories   memories of the Star of David   Synagogue destruction   murdered manpower cruel irrationality brought terrible life trauma. ** I chose the theme of Deceit because not only was a technique used to carry out the holocaust, but it is what the holocaust was birthed from. Adolph Hitler with his powerful public speaking ability was able to use deception to mold thousands of german brains into believing that the Jewish community was evil. When the germans took action they provided Jews with false promises of where the trains were taking them and that none of them would be harmed. This is why i started the poem with "It's a trick". Had it not been for deception, and the truth was used as fact, the holocaust would have never happened. **
