Isrealites

The Isrealites Is it better to run or to fight, I hope to find out from the ancient Isrealite. They hid in deserts, they hid in the mountains They found peace and well-being, able to satisfy their survival need Which seemed to appear from nowhere into fountains of prosperity without greed They hid from oppression, they remain for many years apart from civilization, Only to build their nation own from the nothingness from the landcape they remained to uphold; spreading the lords calling as their leader was told what made a seemingly simple people, feel so bold. They fought many battles for riches and lands; How were they able to wipe the blood off their hands? Is it truly better to run then fight; what makes a community better than another? To leave the village as a massacre burial site. Many ways we are different but physically are we the same? We all use tears and laughter to take away the pain As Brothers and Sisters is it possible to lock hands in peace Well in hope, there still remains hope, at the very least....
