Chitchat between Hitler and Che Guevara at a Beer Garden
the loser because he has lost the winner because he has lost if only he didn’t losehis battle here if only he was not captured if only he was not tried at the military
court if only he was not executed if only the revolution did not end if only, if
only in the beer garden cigarette smoke wafts around, almost retching in the
wavering watery air everything looks the same laughter breaks out Cheers! Hitler
and Che in the flesh, chitchatting rock stars with sought-after brands toothbrush
moustache, a cigar, swastika printed on a beret now this is vogue for the youth
youths, youths, the new generation the future of mother earth youths who didn’t
witness the gas chamber youths who missed their guerrilla wars thanks to
deforestation they are fanatical one shot, another shot just top it up the
youths are all ears ears that wouldn’t flinch Heil Hitler! Heil Che! if there had
been internet back then the Jews would have been cleansed even faster Che,
what’s next when your online revolution is over by the way what about guerrilla
warfare to eliminate Jews for food security, to solve the financial crisis, to combat
poverty, to save the environment, for population control, will the gas chamber be a
solution again they have downed the past (not a drop left) they have streamed the
future down into their glasses in the end, a mutual agreement has been reached
only the two of them, confiding one more shot, come on do you know are you
also interested do you want me to tell you the perfect meeting of minds without
the need for negotiation you might know everyone here knows beer is not liquor –
that’s that!
