Hitler put his pants on
one leg at a time
He had headaches
and bad nights of sleep
He cared about the environment
before most people did
He probably combed his mustache
and drank tea
The idea that he was so different
then you and I
is something most people have to do hold into in their minds
They can’t imagine him as a human,
with logic and feelings
They like to call him crazy
and that’s where they stop
Like so many of us
he was just the victim
of an ideology, power and praise;
and truthfully,
I think that this is an easy trap,
that too many of us
can fall
into.
I am not defending the man
I’m just pointing out
that none of us are perfect.
And it's easy
for the average man
to think
that he is on the right side of history;
and even easier to think
that what he believes in
is right.
-C.H.
