RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: ISRAEL AT WAR
Blind Vengeance
People of Israel
Do you know the crimes
committed in your name?
What began as self defense
surrendered that rationale
when Netanyahu decided civilians
were subject to extermination
People of Israel
Have you seen the destruction
delivered in your name?
Hospitals are not hiding enemies
Schools are not training sites
An ambulance is not a target
Children are not expendable
Palestinians are not Hamas
Mothers are not soldiers
People of Israel
Do you know the blood your
leaders are spilling in your name?
I am not a terrorist apologist
I lament the unconscionable act
that unleashed this chain of horror
but just retribution has turned
into blind and brutal vengeance
People of Israel
I believe in your humanity
Help us to help your nation
return to the path of peace
