In all truth, I was thinking about ICE and how it might get much worse. Along with that, of course, there are the patterns of the Nazis and the Soviet terrors. The poem is about the fear and vanishing.

Why would anyone treat fellow humans that way, unless there is more animal than we care to admit.

Thanks again.
