Let us build a wall
on which we carve
the names of all
6 million Jews
murdered by Nazis.
Let us build a wall
on which we carve
the names of all
killed in WW I and II.
Let us build a wall
of sand each grain glued
by horror of all those
slaughtered throughout
millennia.
But let us now
build no more walls,
but the bridge of love,
a mosaic of mankind--
colors, cultures, cuisines
and more.
