Except you're doing a ghoti Bernard Shaw on our sentence structure.
German declines its articles, so you can tell subject and object by

German has other niceties, like
der gefangene Floh the prisoned flea
der Gefangene floh the prisoner escaped

Time flies like an arrow, fruit flies like a banana.
Cheers,
