Villanelle Ice-cream Poem

Hath a Jew not eyes?

7.6 billion different views; imagine that united under one vision.

“All the better to see you with,” replied the wolf

We separate people and divide them with lies

Yet we’re all the same under this external disguise

Hath a Jew not eyes?

If we’re only judging outwards we cause more harm to self

Everybody loses if we adopt the perspective of Adolf

“All the better to see you with,” replied the wolf

The same hands, organs, dimensions, senses, affections, passions

So don’t let society’s lust for conflict steal your compassion

Hath a Jew not eyes?

“All the better to see you with,” replied the wolf
