POETRY FOR PALESTINE

Because of occupation,

Palestinians are forced to live on donations,

for many generations

Have you ever felt your heart ablaze,

Fuming with rage and righteous anger

For a baby, with an unfinished smile,

Shot in the head at point blank

Did storms of fury ever roared inside,

For claims by a mob, of a God given right,

to lynch, rob, maim and shout:

“unto the nations we are the light”

Have you ever shed a tear, in sadness or despair

For a child, perished prematurely, of cold or hunger,

clutching mum’s hand, waiting for her dad

Are you truly in love with that mystic land?

Do you feel for her people,

Unwelcome by life, unwelcome by death

Hanging in between?

Can you hear them chanting, FREE FREE PALESTINE?

Passing the flag of dignity, from hand to hand

As they fall in droves, on enduring death march

If so, Help it rid itself of demons,

Flesh eating ogres with guns and tanks

Be a spark of light, be an inspiration

Say no to occupation

Aim for nothing but FULL LIBERATION

No more slavery, no more donations
