If Hitler really escaped to Argentina

SlavaOn

Jedi Master
(according to "FBI files" http://guardianlv.com/2014/03/argentina-was-hitlers-final-home-according-to-fbi-files-part-iii-video/) and died there in 1970s, he would have enough time to write a sequel to Mein Kampf. That book would eventually surfaced after his death. So, maybe, he never escaped then!?

The following stanzas explain how Hitler became who he is. It took me one week in 2009 to write all 3 chapters.

***

Chapter I.

A bottle of wine left on a floor
Half-empty, half-full

My mind is elsewhere, wandering about things
Half-stupid, half-fool

You are the one - constantly on my mind
Half-naked, half-dressed

What would I give, to be closer to you
Half-touching, half-pressed

I know, I know, I am out of my mind
Half-delirious, half-obsessed

And yet, the nagging thought continues
Half-bugging, half-pest

What chance do I have: without money, without power
Half-jester, half-clown

To win you over, my fair lady
Half-royalty, half-crowned

God has answered my silent prayers
Half-unwittingly, half-unaware

An artist drew us in a picture:
Me - fully dressed
And you - almost certainly bare.


Chapter II

There is no wine bottle, it's gone
There is a puddle of water spilled in front of an empty throne

Memories, like fallen leaves
That were blown away by cold winter breeze

Remind me the tales of the times past
When I was a jester at a king's fest

But, like the coals that are buried in ash
Desires still flicker, disconnected from flesh

That artist crazy, in a fit of madness
He transferred my soul to a painted canvas

I can not hear, I can not ask
My mouth is open in a smile grotesque

I am holding you in my arms
To see you eyes, I have no chance

For ever and ever, I will be looking straight
Bound to my love in a twist of fate

The God had mercy on my damned soul
When a mirror was placed right across in the hall.


Chapter III.

Time looses the meaning to those damned
Without beginning there is no end

The paints have faded and almost cracked
But the bonds are holding still intact

To free my soul from eternal void
That very painting should be destroyed

The years flew by... How many? I can’t remember
I was constantly praying to God for surrender

The devil offered me full liberation
If I will him my soul for eternal damnation

The next man who will look straight in your eyes
Will haplessly fall for a nasty surprise

His body will take your soul as a host
His soul will become just a bodiless ghost

After six hundred sixty six years of hesitation
I finally caved in for Devil’s temptation

The man came, as if out of nowhere
With sad looking eyes at me he stared…

His name is Adolf Hitler… and he is very sorry -
You already know the rest of the story.
 
I haven't watched that movie... Just finished 3rd episode. I have complex feelings, seeing Hitler portrayed as a positive figure. When I was raised in the Soviet Union, Hitler was an embodiment of evil. In WWII both of my grandfathers were killed, one a civilian, another - a volunteer military officer. In 1945 1/3 of the country was in total ruins. The atrocities of the war... So many people dead.

On the other hand, if Victor Suvorov is right, Stalin was the mastermind behind the rise of Hitler. He could be the man behind the curtain that failed in his plans, when Hitler striked first. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soviet_offensive_plans_controversy

Who shall I blame for the deaths of my grandfathers - Hitler or Stalin?
I wrote this poem and called it "Requiem for my grandfather"

A flock of birds, no, pack of vultures
Descends on my still breathing corpse
I'll let them have their bloody dinner
The other alternative is much worse

The birds of mercy, please, stop that pain
With your sharp beaks, cut the jugular vein
My blood will pour and will mix with earth
To bear something newer and nourish its growth

Devour the flesh..., but bones shall remain
intact. They will wait for redeeming rain
That will sooth and relax my aching skull
In its magical weathering ritual.

Spring will come and fresh green grass
Will become a soldier’s brand new dress
Summer flowers slyly will poke their heads
Through the spaces between my shoulder blades

I will still be able to see all around
While I slowly sink into the ground
I can see my grave covered with snow
When I tightly hug mother Earth below

I am sleeping now, like in my mother’s womb
I forgot completely, I was killed by a bomb
It happened on summer of nineteen forty one
Forgive me my God, please, take care of my son!
 
Hello SlavaOn, I was reading previous posts of yours, you said that you rarely post here, and you post poetry for the forum's entertainment. But you also said you have a serious part. Which apparently on this forum is not so much present. You also said that there is more to be known about you by reading your poems. Why not just saying who you are? Is there a reason of why you have to codify yourself through poetry?

Hello Egitarra.

Who am I? It depends on who is asking!
I am flattered that you want to know who I am, since I keep asking the same question.

My poetry was an unconscious act. I never liked poetry, for a matter of fact. I never read it and never wrote it. Something must have happened and on my 44th birthday, as if some internal gates were opened, the poetry flooded out of me. I was scribing on the backs of envelopes, while driving; I was writing in a gym, etcetera. I have noticed that it was happening, when my mind was not concentrating on anything in particular. Two years later I had amassed over 150 pieces. I enjoyed the experience and wish that it would continue. Although I try from time to time, the magic is gone :) I can judge if my poetry is any good, I self published a couple of books and posted most of it online... I have noticed, when I read it aloud, it sounds very different then other people read it. Must be my Russian accent :)

Besides, from what you gleaned from my verses, here is some trivia:

I was born in Russia and lived in the US since 1996;
I am a naturalist - I love Nature;
I work in IT as a network support guy;
I like to do many things, but my interests shifts often;
I am fascinated by the aspect of immortality;
I am happily married with children;
I am a student on this forum, I didn't come to teach
