I’ve always appreciated this one:

Travel Sickness ~ A Funny Poem About A Writer

Travelling by train from Luton to London

To attend a writers' convention

I spotted the chap in the seat opposite

Was reading my latest collection

Feeling my chest swell with authorial pride,

I coughed to attract his attention.

'I see that you're reading my book', I remarked,

Expecting a friendly reception.

Instead, he went red. 'Have it back', he said,

'I was under a misapprehension.

It was on my seat when I boarded the train,

But it's quite beyond comprehension.'

In the book "Night"
monitta
Elie Wiesel's inheritance is a knife and a spoon that his father leaves to him when he dies. His father tries to give it to him a few times when his name is called during selection, but Elie does not take until the very end. This shows that the fortunes of the Wiesel family have drastically changed since chapter 1 when the family buried their most prized possessions to keep them out of the hands of the German soldiers. This was true for many Jews at the end of WWII. Their homes had been raided and all of their possessions taken. Many Jews had nowhere to go and no money after they were liberated from the concentration camps.
