God is no longer with us
By: Finn 
It’s over. God is no longer with us
A shot, dying, ceasing to be
Twisted, shriveled, icy hard ground
Parched, decayed, a hundred in each car
Throw out the dead! Outside, all the corpses!
Separated, lonely, greatly moved
March, run, faster, harder
freezing, dying.
Where is god
I will join him
no! Advance! God has left
Sick, sad, mistreated, cramped
March! Run! 
Gunshot
Helpless, losing hope, run away
Slower, Looser, keeping a dim pace
God is not here
God has left us
It’s over. God is no longer with us

    I liked how you repeated the words “Its over. God is no longer with us” in the beginning and end of your poem, it really makes the poem stand out. Overall it was a really good poem, and I enjoyed reading it.

Before our unit of the Holocaust, I didnt fully understand how brutal this time period was. In the book Night , Elie talked about his experience at the concentration camp, which was extremely hard to read. Going to the Holocaust musuem was even harder. When we watched life is beautiful, they talked about how they take older people and children into a room and tell them that they are going to take them in for a shower. But they actually put them into a gas chamber. And at the holocoaust museum I saw a picture and there was someone who knew what was going on with the gas chambers and was throwing out her kids, screaming let me die and not them. But an overall question I had during this unit was that, did the people torturing the Jews actually believe that they think it's fair to take innocent people to a concentration camp, or were they just afraid of Hitler and had a better advantage because they were German. In the beginning of the book Night , Elie talked about how much he cared a...

Throughout our study of the Holocaust, most of my time was spent processing how one man, more or less, managed to cause this horrendous event in human history. Hitler’s movement was the reason the word “genocide” was created. I know that when we think of events like these, we don’t necessarily associate them with our present. But just like us now, no one thought this form of evil, this desire to annihilate a whole race, could be carried out successfully. But it did. And for a long while too. The idea of furnaces, ha… furnaces, built to burn humans bodies, dead or alive, it didn’t matter. “‘Over there, that's where they will take you. Over there will be your grave. You still don't understand? You sons of bitches. Don't you understand anything? You will be burned! Burned to a cinder! Turned into ashes!’"(56 Wiesel). Can you imagine hearing that you will be burned alive or shot for reasons unknown to even Adonai Himself? Not knowing why you are in this hellhole in the fir...

Lost Faith By: Camille  I became A-7713.    From then on I had no other name.  Never shall I forget those moments that murdered my God,   my soul,    and turned my dreams to ashes.  Where is He?     This is where - Hanging here from the gallows.  We were alone.  It’s over God is no longer with us.  Our eyes opened,    only too late.  I no longer pleaded for anything.  Don’t cry,  Keep your anger,  your hate,    for another day.     For later.   Clench your teeth and wait.
