More talks with the dead. By
Hannes Messenger
Caspar, O,
Caspar, who called yourself Max,
Marx for sure gave you the axe,
and hit you not on the belt but below,
but now you can say: I told you so,
You were wrong and Communism doesn't work,
If you believe in it, you might believe in the stork,
I was right after all,
Communism came to a fall,
And they could have saved a lot of pain,
if they hadn't tried Marxism in vain.
Rudolf, O,
Rudolf,
I don't have the guts,
with all your followers around to call you nuts,
and for one I must say.
That your schools are doing okay,
Maybe your ghosts also exist, and it
is something I missed,
But no matter, time will tell,
and maybe I meet you in hell.
And then you might,
show me the light.
Adolf, O, Adolf,
in Munich you once saw Gesell,
had you listened, he would have saved you from hell,
but so you had to end
from your own hand,
sending millions ahead
to the land of the dead.
And the one you sent to open the door,
was called Gregor.
Karl, O, Karl,
what a mess your followers made,
from an idea, which wasn't so bad,
They didn't know what to do,
but neither did you,
you thought that the owner of a factory,
had the means and didn't see,
that the banker was the first in line,
who said, this factory is mine.
Otto, O, Otto,
you held the fort in a time very hard,
and later even influenced Erhard,
Your early death was a loss for mankind, you bet,
and I treasure the only time we met,
You were a shining light,
and I hope that one day I might
with something I do,
measure up to you.
Maynard,
O, Maynard, you were the first from academia,
who saw that Gesell could lead the way to utopia,
but believed that you were smarter than the master,
which only could lead to disaster,
you gave politicians the deficit to spend,
and of course they would never end,
and they wouldn't consider to hear,
it's payback time my dear,
but at least you prevented the worst of depression,
and we have only to be contend with stagflation.
Ghandi, O, Ghandi, they didn't take seriously your funny
coat,
and laughed when you traveled with a goat,
yet it was nearly you alone,
who took India away from proud Albion,
You had help from the Axis and world war one and two,
and the English unions helped you too,
in the end you died for what you wanted so much,
and the untouchables still nobody wants to touch.
Michael,
O , Michael, we wonder how you knew,
about America, and Franco and Riviera too,
Is time really something not staying in line,
and progressing forward normally and fine?
Is it something that is something we never will know?
It is hard to believe that you told us so,
hundreds of years ago,
what happened only years ago,
Is it really only a dance
and how could you know in advance?
Karl, O, Karl,
you show for one,
never underestimate an Austrian,
wether Freud, Reich, Heidegger and Schauberger,
nor Hitler or Unterguggenberger,
and there is Mozart and Strauss,
your open society might become the cause,
for the survival of this civilisation,
if they only accept the cure for inflation.
