They Are Shelling Gaza

 

By Genevieve Cora Fraser

May 15, 2004

 

E-mail Gaza

Real time

7:05 AM

From Hanini

Please forward

Mary here hell

Is occurring now

You hung up

And they began

The shelling

Is continuous

I cannot sleep

I must leave

The journalist

Laptop OK

Shelling here

Must leave

 

Mary I’ll

Send you

Pictures they

Are shelling

Civilian houses

Now more

Ambulances

OK shelling

Increasing

From Apaches

 

Mary I’m

In the hospital

Here using

The laptop

Computer

Of that journalist

Here the doctors

Don’t know how

To collect

The body parts

Of the injured

People they

Get mixed

And no one

Knows who

Got killed

 

I have many

Many pictures

Apaches shelling

No sleep in two

Days must leave

He needs his

Computer now

Before we get

Disconnected

 

Mary one

Of my relatives

I can’t identify many

Many parts of his body

Burnt by the apache

Warplanes I don’t

Know if these

Fingers belong

To him or not

OK will see

This man needs

His computer

Must get this story

Out before

The electricity

 

They are

Shelllllllllllllllling  

Shelling now the
Apaches shelling

People are feeling

Demolishing

So many

Many things

Must move now

Tell me

If you want

Me to write

About the

Massacres

Tired now

Exhausted

OK he needs

This computer

Will finish

And give him

His laptop

Must leave
