Notes About The Poem

Every Day

Brings me more sadness
immense guilt
I am fine
many are not
children slaughtered
aid workers shot
 	trying to save them
doctors raped
and alleged kind hearts sit and
watch
and do nothing
I am not only sad
I am disgusted
at all of you

distraught
helpless
my life I would give
to save a child's heart
I am so full of hate
sorry

Arthur, I also saw that story. It does highlight the hypocrisy of the justification Israel's government and ours give for killing civilians. They prefer to hide these things. Frankly, our media blurs out the images of dead and mutilated bodies. Everyone should really see it as it is. That's part of the problem too.

Yes and to be honest you are seeing nothing unless you looking at international media.

Hello Arthur, It is so sad all the things we are hearing, I find it very disturbing and upsetting too. I can only pray for things to get better for them. Thank you for sharing.
