The Devil's DenA Poem by PidgeeSolo![]() Made this for English last year. Excerpts are from the book Night.![]() The Devil's Den The flames, do you see them? (31) Flames, huge flames (32) An infernal heat was rising (33)
Under penalty of death (11) [And] face-to-face with the Angel of Death (34) Children [were] thrown into the flames (32)
Targets for the machine guns (6) Like cattle in the slaughterhouse (31) [They] shot their prisoners (6) [Who were] forced to offer their necks (6)
Could this be just a nightmare? (31)
Victims, injured and in need of help (BA1, 2) [Could not] process the horror in front of them
(LS3) They think I’m mad (7)
Hostile faces, hate-filled stares (12) Faces of hell and death (19) I began to hate them (19)
Look at the fire! Look at the flames! (28) Run! (36)
Unconscious (BA1) Shut down (LS3) [From] genocide or the street beatings (LS2)
Never shall I forget (34) The smell of burning flesh (28)
My soul had been invaded "and devoured- by a black
flame (37) [A] thick smoke that poisoned the air (37) [And] stung the throat (37)
Never shall I forget that night (34) Two steps from the pit (34) The pit and its flames (33)
Why did I not act? (BA6, 6) © 2012 PidgeeSolo |
