A Little Homing Pigeon, Winkie
A Little Homing Pigeon, Winkie
when I strolled alone I saw the pale blue sky with gloomy clouds
floating heavy near my head, high in the sky.
Deeps and woods then vales and hills creep and scream
when all at once I saw a swarm of menfull aircraft
A host, tyrant Nazi; slaughtering Jewish worms
Burning the wreaks and burying the dead
frightening and bawling filled the breeze.
Continuous as the souls that cry
and trembling lives on earth are yet to fall in Sheol
were stretched in never-ending lines to abide by,
along the racial margins - tossing into gas chambers
Millions saw I at times,
The troops beside them were offended;
that they out-did their chore in the shoah
A Human could not, but the greater Nazi with such a jocund peer
I shall take much time to grieve - a little homing pigeon winkie
unaware of the truth I flighted home and happened to save the bombers.
Little did I think what wealth they had pushed to death
for often, when in the sky I fly in a vacant or pensive mood
they functioned non-stop upon tormenting gloomy Polonia and that
my heart covered with devastating blues
and what can a bird do to aid?
I shall grieve my glooms alone.
