                                                  White wings tainted with blood
                                            Flowers are dirt, and dirt becomes mud
                                    A sword in one hand, becomes terror in another
                                     Today we are destroyed, brother by brother
                                   We've fallen to the land and whims of despair
                                      To die is a promise, to survive is a dare
                                  Our spirits are one, our grief shall be mourned
                                  Until we are saved, our freedom lies adjourned
We had to write a poem about the Holocaust in AP Lang based on Elie Wiesel's book "Night." I actually really enjoyed this assignment (minus the nightmares the book gave me about being burned alive.)
