with withered eyes the sight unbearable
the black sun radiating outside in
on cold marble fenced and damned
pulverized symbols martyred and erased
the tracks leading out blown up
dancing across the border fence
an image of black in a world of white
in phantom time that hollow mucles build
a face so fair to be born again
when smoke clouds part like nutria the sea
no cane but polished boots will shatter
(regeneration builds up the war poet's voice)
virginia dare on the shore washed up
all clad in robes and saris bright
fried chicken the monkeys throw
(with a coconut smile the dream is over)
and marching marching marching bright
the soldiers of god and blood and honor
restore the sun in its own space
inner selfs that glow with black sun rays
Part II
chinky chicken farmer Himmler
in 1934, the bespectacled geek decided to discover
a heroic past that was a fiction created in his pea-sized brain
castle wewelsburg, once home to noble men,
fit the bill:
its axis runs precisely north-south,
nurturing himmler's sick delusions of nordic racial grandeur
(in exclusivity and opposed to latin splendor)
also, according to german poet freiligrath,
the end struggle between west and east
would take place there or at least nearby
(confirming the age-old suicidal nature of german "aryanism,"
pitting teutons against slavs,
relegating the former to masters and the latter to slaves)
himmler, mad as a hatter, believed all this occult nonsense and more,
obsessing over the thought that wewelsburg was the center of the world,
and imagining himself to be the reincarnation of saxon king henry I.
(also known as "the fowler," henry I. did not keep chicken),
himmler had his private rooms in the castle decked out to glorify this
fake lineage,
again confirming himmler's disneyfied vision of reality
some SS couples were married in the castle according to ancient pagan
customs
on one floor of the castle the black sun symbolized germanic grace
at the end of the apocalyptic and unnecessary war,
himmler wanted wewelsburg dynamited,
but, ironically, invading yankees stopped the total destruction of the
castle
