about Israel and Palestine
Well said Stacey. We all need to use our strong voices more and more. Thank you for reminding us.
I wrote this poem to express how I have been feeling
Moral Compass
Gasping for air,
My breaking heart races
Keeping time with the wailing
Bereft Mamas
Babies
orphaned
taken hostage
Silent, burned out homes
littered with corpses
stop my heart
Shatter my equilibrium
Fine lines are drawn
Eye for an eye
Mired in escalating blame and revenge
Moral certainty washed away
by the blood of the innocents
