Hitler’s Art

Hitler's art is lifeless.
He draws Mary and Jesus
But he does not believe in Mary or Jesus.
He just knows it's a popular motif.

He was a cold, artless mathematician
Drawing warm portraits of city streets;
Warm bodies of Mary tenderly holding Jesus.
Yet, there was no faith.

It was like he was a copycat,
Trying to be Charles Leickert
While trying to also paint stain glass
Or be Sassoferreto; and all would have been forgiven
If he simply had faith.

But, instead, like a mathematician,
His formulae were painted.
