Let us not shelter our Shoah.
Set it free;
it belongs to everyone.
It bubbles up even now from the killing fields
wrapped around the degraded bones
like one more plastic bag, cheaper than bullets
and reusable.
It floats down the Kigara river
declaring human the mislabeled, murdered roaches
with stumps for hands.
The Sudan, strewn with severed fingers,
discarded clitorises,
stolen dignity,
smells of Shoah.
The closer we keep it, the farther it roams.
Free it, free it, let it show its face
and be recognized, and stopped.
Let us not shelter our Shoah.
Set it free;
it stains everyone.
Our suffering is not diminished by the suffering of others.
Our freedom is secured only by the freedom of others.
Let us not shelter our Shoah.
Set it free;
our memory can hold it, and hold more, but not so close,
not so close.
We cannot be alone and we are not alone.
Never forget: never forget the past,
never forget the future.
