After the Liberation

General Eisenhower was a man of foresight
General Eisenhower had photographs taken
because he knew that evil is eternal
because he knew that Satan is immortal
because he knew someday some would deny
that it ever happened....

Have to wake up my girl. Our contest winners are up! I hope to write the blog tonight.. maybe tomorrow.As for this poem, yes. When something is so horrible, so evil and inhumane that it seems almost unbelievable, we do not want to face it as a truth. Reality is hard to grasp and apathy is a tool for liars. Hugs to you chum....

Yes, it is unbelievable how people can say it never happened. I applaud him for what he did. This is a really cool post to make around memorial day, Tim. Hope all goes well with you this weekend.
