Four More Years in a Bush Whacked Palestine?

 

By Genevieve Cora Fraser

 

September 11, 2004

 

Four more years

Under a Bush

Sponsored

And funded

Peace negotiation

Promises more Israeli

Peace barbs

Experimental rockets

Gasses, bullets

Exploding Palestinians

Ripped to shreds

By Israeli flachette

Warhead missiles

Over three score

Times fifty killed

Tens of thousands

Wounded over

Twenty eight

Thousand

Made

Homeless

Farmlands

Ground to dust

In a wasteland

Existence

Bleaker than

A moonscape

Waiting

For a rocket

Honeymoon

Ride to the next

World

Dismembered

Into three parts

Gaza is truncated

By troops amassed

For a dawn raid

North and South

School children

Await execution

Of the next atrocity

Five weeks to

Register to vote

In Palestinian

Elections may

Not be sufficient

Time with Palestine

Closed for a month

Due to Israeli

Atonement

For transgressions

Amassed near the base

Of their conscience

But unable to penetrate

Israeli Foreign Minister

Shalom means Peace

Promises to rid Palestine

(But never say

Goodbye)

To its President

And Prime Minister

In advance

Of the election

Arafat’s days

Are coming

To a close

In advance

Of Israel’s

Planned

Extinction

Of Palestine

This could happen

Under four more

Years of AIPAC

Likud Zionist

American Rule

Earth, a planet hungry for peace

 Apartheid Wall

   
The Israeli Land-Grab Apartheid Wall built inside the Palestinian territories, here separating Abu Dis from occupied East Jerusalem. (IPC, 7/4/04).

 

The Israeli apartheid (security) wall around Palestinian population centers in the West Bank, like a Python. (Alquds,10/25/03).
