Silence On Shabbos
11/4/2023
~~Be quiet now, stir not a single soul~~
Though your hot tears fall hard as boulders,
We are deaf, we give you the coldest shoulder.
Your screams for humanity and justice, we don’t care.
We cover our faces, are out to march,you had best beware!
Of felonious climate change, yes, do write of and sing.
But of actual violence,don’t you even dare say one thing!
Were you under an allusion,that you had no enemies here?
Wake up…we slew you long ago, too bad, you just didn’t hear!
