Volunteering In Israel

I have been sold plastic gold twinklets by Bedouin children at Beersheba I have collected eggs from squawking hens under some azure Kibbutz Hasolelim sky I have seen the inclarity of the religiously saved at Mea Shearim But I have never crossed the green line I have been to the biblical Safed, which lit fires at festivals or scrapped my knees at Mount Masada I have been adopted by 2 families in Ashkelon one ostensibly poor the other deemed rich But I have never crossed the green line
