Palestine Poem
See no evil...
The blood spattered floors
Settlers smashing down doors
Children manhandled and arrested
Peaceful folk, patience being tested
Rogue nation hell bent on genocide
Laws don’t apply, only for others to abide
Hear no evil...
The cries of Palestine
Born into oppression, their crime
Gunfire, bombs raining down
Death and despair in which they drown
Screams of anger, screams of rage
Nowhere to hide, trapped in their cage
Missiles screech, another family dies
Tyrants on tv, with the same old lies
Speak no evil...
World leaders, many tongues are held
Silence is defending, as innocence are shelled
Support for the oppressor they shout
Quiet now about freedom they usually spout
