The brutality of the Nazis is not well known among the present generation of school children, it is not taught at all in many countries. Germany actually teaches it to their credit, in their schools to their students, least this history is forgotten. ***a genuinely new idea? *** Approach the theme from multiple angles, slices of life, a few might be a genuinely new idea. Very few people wanted to read the subject in poetry. I did a few poems in 1987, then 2010 to 2012.

Slightly evocative of your two earlier poems on the same subject. The difficulty is that the brutality of the Nazis is so well known now. How do you write a genuinely new idea?

It takes someone with great human sensibility to feel and remember the millions gone, Most European countries handed their Jews to the Nazis, like France did, while Spain helped some, get away. " Mans inhumanity to Man " is incredible. Be warned about what absolute dictatorships can do, to the right or the left. Let these poems be a very poignant, painful, brave and realistic reminder! ! !
