Review of showering acts of joy member to member

Why I chose this piece: Birthday

Overall impression of piece: I know this period of time well. Certainly I can see all the images of which you speak. I can feel them on a visceral level. Germans thought this sort of thing would just happen and were shielded from the enormity of what was really going on. How bad were these people? Reseach has been done to tell us that it would probably happen again in our age and time. If anything, we are worse than they are. We are more prone to listen to an expert

Grammatical and spelling errors: Seems fine

What I liked? I like your choice of images. Help did come to late for those hands. I like the devouring of hearts. Obviously, they never did this, but on a metaphysical level , they certainly did. Perhaps you could add they were devoured by national greed and hatred.

What I disliked: Feet marked with the star of david. I am not sure if they were ever marked in this way. They were marked other ways. Shouldn
't it be 12 million hands and feet? I am not good at math, but for me, it is a disconnect.

How the piece made me feel: Not a bright happy poem by any stretch of the imagination. I think you are saying we will fall victim to the halocost of war. Starvation and hunger are also players. If you torture someone, it doesn't matter which way

Hope this helps. Use my ideas as your creativity alchemy deems fitting
