“After Auschwitz” (Poem) || Yehuda Amichai

After Auschwitz, no theology:
From the chimneys of the Vatican, white smoke rises –


a sign the cardinals have chosen themselves a Pope.
From the crematoria of Auschwitz, black smoke rises –


a sign the conclave of Gods hasn't yet chosen
the Chosen People.
After Auschwitz, no theology:
the inmates of extermination bear on their forearms
the telephone numbers of God,
numbers that do not answer
and now are disconnected, one by one.


After Auschwitz, a new theology:
the Jews who died in the Shoah
have now come to be like their God,
who has no likeness of a body and has no body.
They have no likeness of a body and they have no body.
