Solemn Greetings

The oppressed Palestinian now hears solemn greetings from all around the world, riding the winds of war. Many a giant ghosts stand contemplating the killing field, Dr. King, Gandhi, Ho Chi Minh, lamenting your plight. You persevere magnificently, need a Ho Chi Minh trail to turn this bloody war to your benefit. Your right to resist oppression can never be denied. I hear through the deep silence of the West, an autumn of discontent, riveting through streets of fire. But what you want is to embrace everyone like a mother, friends and enemy with a quiet kiss of peace.
