Array ( [sid] => 113403 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Heute Deutschland! Morgen die Welt! (Today Germany! Tomorrow the World!) [time] => 2006-01-18 16:20:48 [hometext] => At the end i gave the ability for one to understand the German ^_^ [bodytext] => Consumed
Consummated
The grave flowers wake.
(I'm German you know.)
A wooden puppet fallen in its strings ;
A blue fairy casting stars into the wish of the world...
To be a real... a real boy!
(down with the jews, they said, down with the jews!)
Heute Deutschland! Morgen die Welt!

As a child I visited the holocaust museum in Washington D.C.
I saw two men holding hands.
I remember reading about the experiments, and the showers, and the furnaces;
they said they could never forget the smell.
I heard Ellie Wisel speak in my dreams; I heard Anne Frank screaming in her sleep!
(*Bei dem HERRN habe ich mich geborgen. Wie sagt ihr zu meiner Seele: `Flieh in die Berge wie ein Vogel_?)

Oh Anne! Anne! Anne! Could nothing save you?

**Bis wann, HERR? Willst du mich vergessen immerdar? Bis wann willst du dein Angesicht vor mir verbergen?

Bis wann soll ich Sorgen hegen in meiner Seele, Kummer in meinem Herzen
bei Tage? Bis wann soll sich mein Feind über mich erheben?

Schau her, antworte mir, HERR, mein Gott! Mach hell meine Augen, daß ich
nicht zum Tod entschlafe!

Daß mein Feind nicht sage: `Ich habe ihn überwältigt!_ meine Bedränger
nicht frohlocken, wenn ich wanke.

And the madness began as the fires burned
and the dead spoke, saying,
your memories remember, but your heart forgets.

For you my darling Anne, should my heart forget you.

*Psalms 11: 1

great job, very powerful. just one minor thing that doesn't matter... 'ellie wisel' is actually spelled 'elie wiesel'. i know it's trivial, but there you are :). again, awesome emotional poem.
