A Demigoddess Distracted Or Hitler Had A Mother Too

Her power diffused, dampened, dismantled,

From eons of bending, of waiting. of bearing,

The weight of her son's lies, thievery, indignities,

The blame of all weakness, the source of most strength,

The catalyst of history's slave masters, steeple builders, and missile moguls,

She has abdicated her throne and bound her own hands,

As she watches her sons toss the world around.
