Israel Slaughters Palestine: A Commemoration

By Genevieve Cora Fraser

Feb 7, 2004

 

Another day in Palestine

Executed under purgatorial

Skies cloudy with menace

Dark figures stalk

The roots that sprang

From Jesse’s seed

Arms rigid as steel

Squeeze cold fingers

Executed in perfect

Obedience to Israeli Will

Blown away as a leaf blows

Away lost from its truck

Sudden explosion from its root

The stem remains

Gashed and gushing

Waif’s head burst

From a slip of a boy

Indiscriminately chosen

By the Chosen ones

No longer

Bored by inaction

Predatory shadows

Mini-men mighty

With power armed

Creep along

A workshop wall

Apprehended

Workmen walk

Hands held high

A salute to the Heaven

From whence the Martyrs

Come they go

One by one by one

By one brought low

Bullets smash

Steel into skull

Brains into teeth

Pearls fly cast

Before the swine

Lips rip

A ruby spouted mist

Kissed the air

Like a prayer

Then down

Bodies drown

In a crimson water grave

Brothers by cowards splayed

By blood-sport soldier slaves

Who live to execute the brave

Palestinian men
