Ashes Stain Forever
Optimistic, but Kafka
warning in the background
Jackboots stamping and the
hysterical painter gaining ground
The Divinity asleep,
promises never meant to keep
Destruction of the
Defenseless, glass strewn all around
Cold and night collapse on
frightened heads
Deaths head the king as
dogs bite and emotion is dread
Move or stand, walk then
run, nothing done is a command without hatred
Prayers in terror, screams
to heaven but only wreckage is sacred
Time stops when living is
torment
Torture is being awake to
feel the terror torrent
Innocence is guilt and
mercy is a whore when justice is for rent
Die Jew is the call; you
will dig your grave to repent!
Alone is the reality, with
nowhere to call home or to turn
The stones of Jerusalem, blackened
waiting millennia for the return
No weapon to kill the Sons
of Martin Luther
The sound of blood flowing
and fire burning – the ashes stain forever
