“Dedicated to Hitler
(Sonnet of Lesser Evil)
I'll write a book of german sonnets,
and dedicate it to Adolf Hitler.
The very thought makes you mad right!
I feel the same way when you
glorify Churchill as savior.
The west has systematically peddled
morons and monkeys as kings heroic,
white suffering is human suffering, while
the colored belong on national geographic.
Sure every society has its own troubles,
All of humanity has its inhumanity.
But the west doesn't have the high ground,
to pass judgment on ethics and morality.
If morality did have a scale,
West would be scraping the bottom.
If this tickles you the wrong way,
You are what is wrong with our western world.”
