Auschwitz, USA (A Song to Sing at Bedtime)

Lets compare regimes:
Now against those then.
When loser definition sin…
Lead us wrong…

That way…

Oh, vague world…
Don’t you see the cracks?
Forming underneath our homes…
Burning in our pipes…

Right now…

Not allowed to say:
Clearly under-scored.
When the US angry horde…
Sends the gas.

Uh-hu…

Oh, this vile self
Still living under-ground
Hiding out from Hitler long hung
Smiling from Hell…
Brilliantly…

Ah-ha…

American you see:
We can not clean ourselves
Of this…
Standing under spout…
Taking a deep breath,
Oh, no we…

Fall en mass
Cleansed of all our sins
Children with the elderly
None to blame… lie still
Lie Still… oh no… lie still with me
Lie still… guns down… lie still… with me…
Oh no… dead can’t kill… me… lie still…
With me… lie still… oh yeah…

Auschwitz…

USA.

    They never learn do they. You paint a very painful image with your lovely words.

    Hilary, you make me feel so good… you even tell me I have beautiful words when they are about Holocaust-like situations. :)

    So deep and sad. Graphic too. Why don’t the authorities take note and learn? Why do they not see what is going on? Why the pain to our countries, young or old what have the innocent done? Your heart and mind captured here for all to plainly see well done!
