Found in the wreckage of Hurricane Katrina
Beleived to be a Holocaust Lampshade
Made from human skin
In my former life
the capstone was when
they took my hide,
tanned it and used it
for Hitler's lampshade.
Giving my hide
was my last act
in Europe.
After the war
I was born
in America.

I am lighter now

Having gone too
t first I was upset
That they took my teeth
Buy fillings are the
Spoils of war
They left the tattoos Alone
I wonder who ended up
With number 1
I mean
What a thing to be
Number 1 at
Yo guys check it out
I'm finally head of the line
One wonders if lamps were all thar were made
All the rage
And made in chronological order
These things and more go
Through my brain
Abhorrent is not a strong enough word disgusting is not a word in line
With a man that could find
The shade of light through
Human skin pleasing
This could have been part
Of my children's family tree
Right time and place
right city
I hope they defrocked
That lampshade
Making it human again
Memorial day us coming up
There is ample space
For a place
To inter
A former shade
God rest that skin maybe now
Rest can begin
In Ernest
