Poem
Nuremberg, Nuremberg, I’ve done nothing wrong only followed orders, the children only song. First it was the word, next it was the book then it was history, surreptitiously they took. From a child’s birth, others choose the way raising children skillfully, parents have no say. The future is neatly planned, he my brother be here to lend a helping hand, no need to fear or flee. Some were promised care, others just a shower then there was no medicine, no soap with which to scour. Today it is the ones with eyes of deepest blue tomorrow, the consensus plans on counting you. Citizens of Utopia toil by the hour Illuminati ambivalent, folly in their tower. There’s little need for God, just opiated masses instigated conflicts inspired clashing classes. Nothing more to do, little left to know trains leave the station, Valhalla’s were they go. Cattle view through slats, from boxcars with lament their destination desecration, reflection begs repent. This I know, I never, not I the innocent never did I measure the vengeful malcontent! I did not lend a hand while others fanned the flame should I not be blameless as the hangman garnered fame? First it was the word, next it was the book then it was the history, surreptitiously they took. Nuremberg, Nuremberg I’ve done nothing wrong only followed orders the children only song. February 26, 2020 B258F With national elections in the offing, remember - Between August 30 and September 3, 1933 the "Rally of Victory" was held in Nuremberg, Germany as Adolf Hitler solidified his control over the German government, its courts, media, houses of worship, and began “cleansing” society. Domination of Europe was in the offing, which would culminate in world-wide war.
