A PLEA to the occupier

Poetry and beauty are always making peace.  When you read something beautiful you find coexistence; it breaks walls down.”   — Mahmoud Darwish

 

Palestine Resistance has exposed Colonialism.

Refusing to leave, and willing to die,

we long proper burials in our own earth

that you brutally deny…

 

Why strip us of this right to sanctify our children: Schism.

You think it’s time for crime, but just fuel rhyme,

incessant grime for those unfitting square

renderings of time and cult.

 

Please peel away at the layers of rigid Zionism.

May the horrific burns scalding for days,

the slicing off body parts to save heart,

and interminable deaths

 

scrape away at the gripping foundations of Despotism

spiraling out the ground like windmill blades;

propaganda machines training soldiers

to normalize massacre for a cause.

 

The Promised Land envisioned: Judaism.

It’s ‘purely’ unforeseeable, sorry.

Palestine exists more with each child

you kill, each family slain

 

resonates zaatar-infused echoes deemed plain Terrorism.

I can’t hold my flag or wear khaffiyeh

in peace, despite your fallacious pink pride.

Try to take the total truth,

 

Just try to admit genocidal intent: Hedonism.

Ethnic Cleansing… and perhaps you can see

the sea for its beauty, not for oysters:

Fantasy ethnic cloisters.

 

The inherent Palestinian fabric of Jerusalem

subsists on the coalescence of three

monotheistic religions merging

at an intimate juncture.
