Back Next God's Man

God got his man Hitler
to smack away permanency
blow away neighborhoods
families
and past events
After God got Hitler
to do his work
there was no
returning to the old neighborhood
for those who escaped
the gas chamber
and saw God's horror
That whole generation
got quite a shock
I wonder if there is
more to it
than
memorials?
