RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: ISRAEL AT WAR
Hostages
Held against their will
Captured by a rabid mob
Down the spine a chill
Innocence is robbed
Let my people go!
Israelis cry in vain
Palestine cries back
Feel my people’s pain!
Alas they call a truce
Released a chosen few
They gave them what they asked
What else could they do?
Palestine and Israel
Are locked in this embrace
A dance of death and destiny
A never-ending chase
For peace can never come
To a people locked in hate
As long as we’re indifferent
To either people’s fate
Free all political prisoners!
Palestinians and Jews
Free every single one of them
Extend the military truce
