Never

Can I begin to

Understand

Imagine

Fathom

Feel

Comprehend

How could I ever

Understand what you went though

Imagine what your eyes have seen

Fathom what your ears have heard

Feel the hunger that ravaged your body

Comprehend the savage cruelty endured

Day after day

In the streets then in the camps

Nowhere to hide or run

Can’t even pretend to grasp

The meaning of

Extermination of loved ones

Evil staring you in the eye

Godless droids overtaking the world

Bulldozing all in their path

While the universe

Stands by in disbelief

How does one pick up and carry on

Beyond that all too very real nightmare

I started writing poetry as a teenager and the passion for it flourished since retiring. I also dabble in photography, watercolour and acrylics. I created what I call Flash Memory Therapy. I am an active member of Haiku Canada and PoetrySoup.com. My poetry is down-to-earth and meant to be understood as opposed to impress with hifalutin words.
