Some of the things that bother me about this poem is the words that they use in the setting. Their choice of words are very frank and it kind of blows me away at how they found love in the most horrible of places. Also, the way they describe certain moments, for example, how they pee infront of each other. Of course, they didnt have much choice in this but finding love in this circumstance is very awkward.
I wonder how someone could come up with an idea of love while going on a blind march to their death bed. It's very sad and frustrating trying to cope through all this when you had a chance at love.
With this poem and along with the other Holocaust materials we have studied up until this point, some connections that can be made are the things that people went through that made then lose their minds. This poem was very powerful and straight forward by the way that it mixes an emotion of love and caring with a sudden burst of hate and screaming to get out of the carts.
