R J. Elless Poet Free verse

Tolls the count

As the world community
Asks Israel to stand down.
Hamas murders with impunity
Then flees underground.

Isreal lives under scrutiny
And still held to account.
While terrorists have freedom
To pass their AKs around.

Free countries need unity
Not gloomy storm clouds.
When we stand together
Evil cowers in a shroud.

Thus, let us speak fluently
Yet justly so out loud
For murder there's no Immunity
And God tolls the count.

Panagiota Romios November 11, 2023 at 9:00 AM I had 6 poems in here on the subject. I removed them.it’s a topical and significant matter. I am glad you posted on it, In memory of the lost, Pangie xxx Panagiota Romios November 12, 2023 at 11:11 AM Now that an American was killed in CA just standing there, I hopeAmericans wake to the Marxist threat to us all..other countries are in danger too, Americans no longer safe. Terrorists have crossed our borders. Surely you know Jews on campuses in the USA are no longer safe! CNN is a poison channel. They lie with abandon, Hamas has offices in the NYT bling. Be aware! I won’t repost the poems here. Pangie xxxx R J. Elless November 12, 2023 at 3:33 AM Wow, that is a lot. It takes courage to say things. I'm sad that you took them down. You can repost them.? But you know better I. I don't have any skin in this, however Isreal is in the right here, no question about it. Some of us need to say it. Me I 'm closer to compelled. AlwaysXX

Joseph P. DiMino November 11, 2023 at 8:39 AM Well said, R.J.. The voice of Truth. Gershon Wolf November 12, 2023 at 6:49 PM You are spot-on, RJ. People accept utter crap and complete illogic. Such as: Hamas has governed Gaza since 2006 and impoverished her residents. So who do those residents/Palestinians go after? -- Hamas? No! They go after Israel. Talk about Jew-hatred. Theirs is sky-high. ~ gw R J. Elless November 12, 2023 at 3:25 AM Thank You, Joe. Uncertain times we live in. It's stunning the crap people will accept. And never say a word. Shame. Stay creative.
