Suspicion
In the airport security line they frown,
staring,
whispering.
Ahmed
sighs,
staring
back,
head
high,
staring.
They frown in line, the airport security.
***
Survivor
Grandpa shivers, remembering trains, showers, bodies,
smoke
rising
from
ovens,
smoke
instead
of
people,
smoke.
Remembering trains, showers, bodies, Grandpa shivers.
