Palestinian Movement Moves
The Palestinian movement is always moving, and the flow always collects new martyrs, like dams that overflow even in arid seasons, always a relief to the dried up souls, who yearn to become a torrential water crashing down the apartheid wall.
The shining words resonating with their just cause
calls attention to their misery and resolve: Palestine will be free, from river to the sea.
It's not a language of exclusion, but a myth of how we should live with each other, in peace and harmony.
In the face of injustice, they don't need to disentangle truth from smear.
The movement always reinvokes its roots as a locomotive does to a train,
like firmly tended trees, withstanding hurricanes.
