Tied Together
On television, every night
Buchenwald
Auschwitz
Guilt :
"How could this happen?
Those criminal Nazis - "
So says the announcer
in german,
now.
Not very entertaining
or enlightening
day after day
German media obsessed by the Jews, Nazis,
now
In the Sportkrankenhaus
where we run an experiment
On changes in german blood
an older german engineer
who reminds me of my father -
I love his hands
So beautiful, kind and strong -
says :
"I don't know, are the Jews
A nation, or a religion
I must find out :
It is a remarkable problem"
The Jewish Question.
He quotes an Israeli writer :
"The Jews and the Germans
are forever tied together",
What Bellettristik, I respond
and am divorced from him. |
