saw something about the German Concentration Camps today on TV.

I worry that we as democratic countries are moving step by step, finger by finger, as we justify yet another step on the way.

I hope we dont ever consider people as objects to use and live from

                Concentration

Travelling by train shipped in in-human worth as hair, teeth, jewellery, use

Torn on promises, betrayed as bought by people trusted, used on trains with a single ticket

Processed stolen knowing hopes were now items of threads

Fighting labelled used on a daily thread

Starving was easy but for those you cared lost and gone but you never sought despair

For more than a second

fills my heart with heavy sorrow knowing what man has done to man and his ways of justifying   rationalizing  without responsibity of own actions, those comfortable in their own sin, shall be destroyed by just that
