A poem about the Kristallnacht and its horror.
A flash of light
In the darkness of night!
Signaled death and fright
In that hour, such a horrible sight

This was the Kristallnacht, and all its horror
Caused by one man, the hated fuhrer
A massive killing spree
To the oppressed, this is commemorated to thee.

The foul treatment made me shiver
My blood rushed like a raging river
What horror is this?
Hitler's Final Solution

What kind of solution is that?
Treating undesirables like pesky gnats
Creating death camps with consecutive inspections
Furnaces so hot there will be no Shadrak, Meshak, and Abendigo resurrections

So many deaths in a single area
After Hitler's demise, it caused much hysteria
These horrors which were unknown
A tale of death and ill treatment is sown

Then the Allies appeared
And the Nazi's knew the end was near
Hiding like a coward Hitler went insane
A single cyanide pill would be his bane

And everyone cheered
While the Nazis sneered
How could this be?
Well, its no surprise to me

Crushed under goods might
Nazis are here, just hidden from sight
Or maybe not
They could planning their next plot
