Joseph Koplewicz
94 years
survivor of Warsaw Ghetto and 9 concentration camps as an engineer
twirling thumbs
lip quivering with age
changing numbers from long ago
caught in disbelief
before a time of terror and today
mind removed and handed an arm
the simple truth is survival
the only painful pause
from a loss of love
in years supposedly safe from pain
quickly resolving in laughter
with a wide eyed song
of dreams fulfilled
under unbelievable blue skies
