TO HITLER
(New York Daily Mirror)
You smote Ledice, a small' Czech vil-
lage, flat,
Because it dared to slay one Nazi rat!
You ordered that the' world forget
its name,
And thus you gave .Ledice undying
fame.
You claim you're more' than man—a
thing divine!!
A "Thing" is right .,athing akin to
swine.
It's true you're not a man—you're
a diseaset
A scourge from Hell polluting every
breeze!'
Your every act confesses you obscene,
A soured pervert, chocking on his
spleen—
For men will pray, and life will
carry on
When your-all your super rats
are gone!
The blackest night must always yield
to morn—
You are the night—and' Freedom is
the Dawn!
The little town your 'henchmen tore
apart,
Like Bethlehem, will live in every
heart!
