Life Occurred
For some
Life occurred
behind the thorny wire.
There, Numbers were born
- they worked,
- they died,
Life occurred
behind the thorny wire.
There, Numbers were born
- they worked,
- they died,
and death?
it visited them not only
during a bath.
To all
those
in striped, dirty suits
could have occurred -
Life.

Life.
