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
