El viento que les llega es tan fuerte que crecen inclinados, torcidos, deformados por los ventarrones, ahora a un lado, ahora al otro; casi paralelos al piso, sus troncos serpentean.”

“Deutschland über alles (The Sonnet)
If the germans have no right
to take pride in their past,
neither do the british
or the americans.
In fact, the scale of british and american
atrocities, surpasses the SS many folds.
'Deutschland über alles' is 'jingle bells',
compared to british and american holocaust.
Yet germany had the human decency
to dump its horrific national anthem,
while colonial pride is still dominant,
across much of america and england.
Radical inhumanity warrants radical reparations,
a concept yet foreign to Buck House and Uncle Sam.
When you are the largest manufacturer of massacre,
making amends should be your existential anthem.”
