THINK AGAIN
Endless grading,
brain burned to a cinder.
Dachau
You have no problems
Sleepless nights,
nocturnal churnings.
Auschwitz
You have no problems
Ungrateful students,
imprisoned among them.
Sobibor
You have no problems
Braces done, college
loans looming.
Bergen-Belsen
You have no problems
Hair turning grey,
age turning fifty.
Maydanek
You have no problems
Do people like me?
Am I achieving?
Treblinka
You have no problems
