Poem:Israel Stole Our Land, Our Country, Our Lives
Israel Stole Our Land, Our Country, Our Lives, Palestine
By Genevieve Cora Fraser
Israeli
Commandoes
Raided the Mother
Theresa Society
A
five AM wake
Up shot fear
Into frail
elders
Orphaned children
Terrified nuns
An elderly
priest
Held by snarling
Dogs and IDF
Gunpoint near
Old Najah Street
In the Nablus
Christian
community
Shots were fired
People rounded
up
Footage on Nablus
TV showed
A lifeless
corpse
A child, a girl
Blood rained
Down her
face
Instead of tears
Her fears dispelled
By an IDF
sniper
Bullet to the head
Dead as
helicopter
Gunships terrorized
The
traumatized
Citizens of the ancient
City ripe with
corpses
Executed Nazi style
Boot prints
On
chests
Gapping holes
In skulls
Fired at close
Range for resisting
The dictates
Of
Israeli
Supremacy
