lyrics

Adolf Hitler's

hopefully rotting bones keep

being exhumed,rattling like a

saw dusted rust sabre and ordered

to dance

His name

a barbed wire pricker bur

cutting the throats of those

still named, numbered, and living



Saints, have not the vanity

for even their own small altars, but the

lesser little beasties want their every single atrocity

carved marble and monolithic

And while I'm sure this wicked little skeleton

chips itself in delight over every

buzzed bald 'Zieg Heil', I

can't help but think that he would like

if his broken surname passed

through a few less lips

That his twisted hall in history

shook only with the names worthy

of his genocide

Mussolini

Amin

Alexander

Pol Pot

Genghis Khan

Caesar



All Hail



I know that we must never forget

but there is a time and place

for necromancy

Evil is evil

but there are varying degrees

and I think it is about time that we

give the devil his due



The systematic slaughter of

millions of a people does not

equal health care reform

The "purification" of the

physically deformed and mentally ill

does not equal higher taxes

An unchecked, Nietzcheian will to power

does not and will not ever

equal politics



The greatest benevolence

and the most sullied malfeasance

do not reside in Heaven or Hell

but are conceived in the human heart

and mind

Both deserve their own Regard

and Perspective

This

is what reminds us that

Petty Annoyance and Cataclysmic

do not intersect or even

share the same trajectory



You can weave

as many failed metaphors as you like

Parade your props

Play Illuminati Connect The Dots until

the cock crows at midnight and you will

still never be right

He

who bestrode this earth

in a pale impersonation of Colossus

now resides in a hole six by six, just

like the rest of us will



The screams of the millions

he sent to the same place and

the spit of their survivors will never

allow his soul to rest,

as is their right

But you must now let his name,

bones and banner finally

return to the dirt that they

are worth
