    of the death-in-life temple
    buzz their prayers

    of excrement arises
    an incense ...

    It is true that this man was nothing but an elemental force in motion, directed and rendered more effective by extreme cunning and by a relentless tactical clairvoyance .... Hitler was history in its purest form.
