    "To be Jewish is to be born during a funeral"
    I've never quite been able to put that into words before. Thank you.

    My non-Jewish friends at school never understand why the little stupid jokes they say about the holocaust upset me. I really needed this. Thank you.

      NotCaitie idiots who think that just cause there are many Jews living in that area that all Jews could never face prejudice. I'm not friends with them anymore tho because they were also really toxic friends who would make fun off the things I like! I have much better friends now! : )

    I love all your poetry and I love that you are openly emotional when performing, it's beautiful to watch. your words are so eloquent and powerful and the emotional fuel behind it makes it poignant and personal and even though I am not Jewish and I don't know any French I can feel your pain in this poem and it makes me want to do something so no one has to feel the pain I can hear in your voice again.

    I am not Jewish, but there's something about hearing of tragedies that cuts souls like knives and reminds me that we are all human.

    This poem left me speechless. Is the book you mentioned before reading the poem available online? Or would I have to be at an event you're at to get it? (I live in New York, so I don't think I'd be able to get to events in LA.)

  • @TheMenasaur

    Hi, Rhiannon! I was wondering, seeing as I am sort of hard of hearing, and have trouble processing audio sometimes, do you think you could add captions, or text in the description, to your poems? This poem is beautiful, and also terribly sad.

    • @rhiannonmcgavin
      @rhiannonmcgavin  9 років тому +3

      TheMenasaur sure thing! the words are in the description now
