Poem: Ask Palestine if Israel is Anti-Semitic
Ask Palestine if Israel is Anti-Semitic
By Genevieve Cora Fraser
Israel is a
terrorist
State run by a terrorist
Government with
liberty
And justice for Jews
Of northern
European
Origin sophisticated
In torture
tactics
Winning wide-spread
Support from a
people
Terrorized into believing
Today may be
their
Last if it were up to
The
Palestinians
Israel was born
To slay
Palestine
Reduce to rubble
The Terra Sancta
Made
Holy to a world
Attached as a child
To mother's
love
Pastoral groves
Gentle shepherds
Arabic
cities
Of charm and grace
Kept eternal vigil
On
sanctuaries
Sepulchers
Ancient ruins
Mosques
Temples
Dwelling places
Of saints and
prophets
Martyrs memorialized
Christian churches
Stand in Tribute
To the birth
Of the
Christ
In Palestine
He was crucified
Died and
buried
As the Palestinians
Are crucified
daily
Gunned down
In their homes
Shops and
streets
Bulldozed belief
In Israel's might
Imbues
every moment
Of Israeli existence
Castigating
The
existence
Of the Semites
Among them third
Class
Israeli Arabs
Unwanted in the land
Of Free White
Supremacist
Ashkenazi
Dominance
Waiting for
the Right
Moment to drive
The Bedouin
>From their
Time
Honored Province
No gentle shepherds
These
but belligerent
Cattle drivers
Rounding up
herds
Of Semites in Palestine
And Coming Soon
In
Israel for holding
Pens and eventual
Starvation
dehydration
Disease ridden
Experimental
And
conventional
Slaughter
As the world
Holds it's
collective
Breath waiting
For Palestine
To breath
It's last
Gasp
Before
Something
Anything
Is
done
