.village.
little red house
little white house
conversions
near
those blossom laden fruit trees
in the country
start of life
my beautiful childhood
red house first; emptied
hollowed chambered
breathe breathe………
the rest of your life…
breathe breathe
zyklon b
drag them
bury them
oh then build a another little cottage
build it white, like a pretty village
plant small flowers, warm the water
empty
breathe breathe
they stand waiting
it takes up
to 20 minutes
until the silence
zyklon b
drag them
bury them
hold your breath
he lived by the village with his fair children; a beautiful childhood
little theatre conversion
commander
butchers blood
no record of him hitting anyone
nor killing them personally
he commanded
middle-class son husband and father
****** murderer
over a million
it is
reported that
he hoped to reeducate the jews
zyklon b
reported that he killed himself using an electrical extension cable
fastened to a rear window handle just 1.4m from the floor
death was far from instantanious
zyklon b
cyanide pesticide
conversion
.the second part.
may not be written
though they have taken notes
the truth can be too much
for them to share
long deep ditches
full to brimming
the man on the tv
told it how it #is
#was
