We Are Humans Too

We are currently reading Night in my English class, and this is what I got from it thus far.

" From now on you'll be known as: A-7713 "

The only way of of this  is death
either by the crematory, or running through barbed wire
life as we know it, has been completely stolen from us
no more hanging out with friends, or meeting new people
death is all we see...

We are humans too!
we have feelings...
and we should have rights,
no one should have to go through
this painful situation

All humans have rights, and you've taken ours away...
what does that make you?

Making us go through all this pain,
misery,
suffering,
and utter despair
is not cool,
it's humiliating...
trust me justice will be served...
and remember..
WE ARE HUMANS TOO!

[Coyote Poetry]

His book told the truth. He lived his life to insure the people responsible were caught and paid the price for the killing of the innocence. Another book you may want to read is called "Painted Bird." By Kosinski. He was a Jew who lived four years roaming Poland during WW2. A powerful poem. I watched the movies about the death camps. I went to many Death Camps in Germany and Poland. You can still smell the burning hairs. I believe it would be impossible to express in words except for the poor men and woman who survived. You wrote a excellent poem. Made me think.

[Jazique]

Nice. I've heard of that book. Seems interesting and very outspokn well done. way to go bet your teacher would be proud of you giving a summary of a book in poetry form. Well done to describe the Human and let them raise their voice to say "We Are Humans Too!"

[Sunflower 20]

[compositionc]

That was a fantastically strong poem.

[cynicalbeliever]

I have literally no idea what that book is but even so brilliant poem! You convey the emotions of the repressed quite brilliantly in this :D

[Poetic Beauty]

I am not sure what this poem is about but it is strong in nature. the wording is done well.

[Fabian G. Franklin]

I reccomend "Man's Search for Meaning" by Victor E. Frankl as a complimentary reading. It is not for the faint of heart.

Very compelling for such a short piece. You convey the feelings of fear and anger quite well here. I don't know the book, but based on what you have written I the gist of the piece is punched home.

A work about such an incredibly horrible event can never fully capture the feelings of being there, but I think you did an alright job. I myself have read Night, and got a totally different sense of his anger, but that's what's amazing about literature in any form: it relates to everyone differently.
