Challenge
Write a poem about a silent death
Silent no more...
It began with a hunger
A hunger like before
They had always had less
Not more
How it would end
They could not have known
One day they were hungry
The next gone
The poor Ukrainians
Stalin abhorred
Five million dead, maybe more...
Realization too late
Famine too wide
All that was left
Was to wait and to die
Without the strength to move
Strength to search
Death
Without a word
