Mockups of how Adolph Hitler might have gone undercover to evade the Allies
By Jack Brummet
In the mid-1940's, the U.S. Government created these mockups to show what Hitler might look like in disguise had he decided to try and elude the Allies.

Poem: "I contain multitudes"
By Jack Brummet
We
all have a platoon
Of partly-contained
Of partly-contained
Ready to burst
From the confines
Of our clown car.

The Tumbling Walls Of Jericho
By Jack Brummet
Jericho was locked down
tighter than a submarine.
It made Helms Deep and
Fort Knox look porous.
Joshua studied the walls,
scooping a way inside,
When a man with whirling
gaslight eyes appeared.
"Hey Spook! Are you
for us, or against us?"
The spook whirled around,
rattled his sword,
And grew ten feet tall and
five feet wide.
"I am the General of
all Generals."
It was The Lamplighter
himself. "Take the shoes
From your feet on my holy
ground,
And follow the ark, with
seven priests with seven trumpets.”
Joshua told the peasants, "All
right, beat feet!”
Seven priests tooting
seven horns led the parade
Around and around and
around Jericho
Like Sambo marched the
tigers around the tree,
Or the way the earth spins
in the dark around the sun.
They marched in silence
six long days.
On the seventh day they
lit out at dawn
Behind the seven priests and seven trumpets
And marched around the
city seven times.
After the seventh orbit,
the priests blew a cadenza.
Joshua said "Shout”
And the roared swelled
with each passing minute
Until the walls came
tumbling down.
Every man, woman, animal
and bug,
Young, old, red, yellow,
black and white,
Fell on the sword.
Joshua was the Lord’s boy
now
And put the hairy eyeball
on any plan
To resurrect Jericho.
