Wewelsburg Castle 1944
I remember that day although I really shouldn't
I wanted so to stay he told me that I couldn't
Gazing at him realized that he was just a man
And I was no longer any part of his great plan
He was my second father he was my mentor
He didn't even bother to tell what it was for
Shuffling through the courtyard feeling so low
Wild thoughts of escape with nowhere to go
I walked outside the tower admiring it's curves
A dread of looming hour shattering my nerves
Beauty all around me observed with teary eyes
God had turned away He wouldn't hear my cries
I wandered in a haze and returned to his door
Counting all the ways I had relied on him before
He smiled pressing a pistol up against my head
I noticed the flaking ceiling and then I was dead
I wanted so to stay he told me that I couldn't
Gazing at him realized that he was just a man
And I was no longer any part of his great plan
He was my second father he was my mentor
He didn't even bother to tell what it was for
Shuffling through the courtyard feeling so low
Wild thoughts of escape with nowhere to go
I walked outside the tower admiring it's curves
A dread of looming hour shattering my nerves
Beauty all around me observed with teary eyes
God had turned away He wouldn't hear my cries
I wandered in a haze and returned to his door
Counting all the ways I had relied on him before
He smiled pressing a pistol up against my head
I noticed the flaking ceiling and then I was dead

Author's Note
During WWII Himmler ordered the restoration of the castle. It was to be a SS mausoleum and leadership school for it's officers, later expanded into ideas of being the center of the world. In the end it was mostly a group of men from Jehovah's Witnesses working on the restoration. Nazis called them bible readers and liked using them because many of them were craftsmen and they didn't need locking up. In charge was an SS stabsführer

The poem is about a teen bible reader who is taken under special care by the stabsführer. He is led to believe that because of his innocent nature he will be spared. A poem of lies and betrayal. What i remember from a former life?

i added info in author's notes. The courtyard and north tower has been etched in my mind for most of my life and after much research i found the place, Wewelsburg Castle in Westphalia Germany. Pretty bizarre huh?
Thank you for the like and comment Angel, i hope that helps

Spooky....those Nazi bastards. I am German....what a dark period of my peoples history. The many faces of fascism....

Well, the winners always write the history books, but yeah the Nazis were a heartless bunch when it came to those they deemed lesser humans which included most everybody it seems.
Have yet to visit Germany in this body, but plan to and i will go to Weweslburg for sure. i want to find out how that will affect me. That courtyard seems small now, but i know exactly behind what door the stabsführer had his office.

Just looking at the pic I can feel darkness. Germany has some very beautiful places and lots of history. Me and my friend used to travel to see old places in the forests where tribes used to live. There are tree circles and stone formations. You can sit and tune in...plug into the location's memory bank. There are also old battlefields where you can feel the suffering that happened....
I hope you get to see and feel some of those places one day.

The picture is from 1944. See that sharp slope leading down from it's side? That's where the walk to the north tower took place, on the flat narrow strip. i hope they allow me to walk that way. Would pay good bribe money for that privilege :-) There is a museum there, a good one i am told, but much of the castle is off limits. In the mausoleum part, there is a mosaic of the black sun. Much mystery surrounds the castle during WWII, most papers were destroyed.
Germany fascinates me, always has. It's funny, my mother is the same way, she is adamant she must have been German in another life. Her favorite place to travel. She says they do things properly there to a high standard. i believe it.
Thanks Angel, if i get a chance to wander around an old forest, i will take your advice.

The Nazis were deeply immersed in occultism....holy grail, shambala, rituals...maybe you will come accross some of that when you visit.
They sure were. The Vril Society another example. :-)
During my research of the castle i learned that satanist Michael Aquino established his Order of the Trapezoid there. Somehow that did not surprise me.

Yes, there seems to be a verboting aura around this castle....just on the pic. I listened to an in debth podcast about Alister Crowley last night. Interesting how folks like that always seem to be connected with politics and intel.
