Flowers Will Bloom

flowers will bloom


they guffawed and laughed in the Knesset
recent immigrants talk about mowing the grass in Palestine
while out in the streets the ancestors of the holocaust
piously scream; may your children die, you dogs!

rubble everywhere among the screaming
terrified children being led away from the fire and smoke
gaza is being ripped apart again
no where to run or hide because everyone is trapped inside

for bibi and his hungry backers, this is just politics
to corral and convince the right to support this genocide, this ethnic cleansing
with another bird he seeks to contain abbass at the un
an old political move to sway the masses; pretext

the goal of the operation is to send gaza back to the middle ages
is this the statement from a 'chosen people'?
to justify the greatest crime in our time?
to kill those who refuse to die?

bombing  human beings who cant get away
within the largest open air prison in the world
is a most odious crime
And why you ask they do such

They try to eradicate the crime the commit
by trying to erase it once and for all
the status quo is a virus they cultivate
the theft of land from those who fled a war back in 48 & 67

But they can't kill everyone and destroy everything
They delete a villages name and rename it a park
flowers still bloom and they cannot kill them all
Flower still bloom and always will...
