The Butterfly Project

It All Depends on How You Look at It by Miroslav Kosek Terezin is full of beauty. It's in your eyes now clear And through the street the tramp Of many marching feet I hear. In the ghetto at Terezin, It looks that way to me, Is a square kilometer of earth Cut off from the world that's free. Death, after all, claims everyone, You find it everywhere. It catches up with even those Who wear their noses in the air. The whole, wide world is ruled With a certain justice, so That helps perhaps to sweeten The poor man's pain and woe. The poem is about Miroslav Kosek inside the Terezin. Writing about Terezin and how people have different perspectives of the Terezin. I understood that there is two side to Terezin which is a “good” side and a “bad” side. That’s what made Terezin the way it was and the way the author wrote the poem, because there are two sides to every story.
