O the chimneys
On the ingeniously devised habitations of death
When Israel's body drifted as smoke
Through the air.

Source: Title poem, O the Chimneys, 1967.
-- Nelly Sachs, (Dec 10 1891-1970), German poet, dramatist; She was transformed by the Nazi experience from dilettante into poignant spokesman for the grief of fellow Jews; won Nobel Prize for Literature, 1966.
