Found Poem: James Parrish


I hate the Fuhrer                                                                                                                  

So much evil                                                                                                                       
Liesel felt it in the shoulders                                                                                               
Against all hopelessness                                                                                                      
The suffering of her mother                                                                                              

I hate the Fuhrer                                                                                                            

 There was no mistaking                                                                                                 
It tortured him                                                                                                             
Police showing up at the door                                                                                    
He simply couldn’t bear it                                                                                                 

I hate the Fuhrer                                                                                                                                                                                          
 The Bitter sweetness of uncertainty                                                                         
Every minute, every hour, there was worry                                                           
A Jew in the dark                                                                                                            
A bad dream                                                                                                                                    

I hate the Fuhrer
