Walking to Rome

Walking to Rome On my way to Rome, I walked with a group of Jews who had left Israel because it had become a racist state The Jews were a group of young men and women on their way to Rome to seek an  audience with the Papa to ask him to take a stance against the orgy of brutality  against the Palestinians Their goal was the creation of a Palestine They, as Jews, could be a part of a new future I listened to their ideology, and they were  Young enough believed in the shared dream I knew that, should they see the P, he would be nice to them and speak in a measured  voice, because the Papacy was a political  too, and nothing must upset the balance  I don't know if they got an audience with the pope But I learned something vital, I had tended  to speak about the Jews in a negative form and didn't see the difference between Zionism and Jews As for me, I met a wonderful woman at Travessa de Santa Maria and had a splendid time
