inspired by Dieter Krombach, German Doctor, Faces Unusual French Trial Over Slain Girl
Accuser and accused
Both of us seventy years old
Limbs uncooperative
Approaching long slumber
Her father, stubborn bastard,
wouldn’t leave me
To time’s caprice
He demands Justice, blindfolded bitch,
Unseeing girl
I awakened in blackness
Eyes covered in burlap
Kicked in head, in mouth
In genitals
Gasping for air
Dragged from my bed in Germany
Ferreted to France
Shackled to fence
Overlooking the courthouse
In frigid abyss of night,
Warmed only by the memory of
His daughter's curly blond hair, and shy smile
His daughter's curly blond hair, and shy smile
She grew even more darling in her terror
