I went to a wedding in Tel Aviv
And one in Tokyo too
I'm not a very good dancer
What would the Buddha do?

California snow
Bangkok monsoon rain
Sometimes I'd like to leave it all
Hop on board a plane

Fly to Istanbul
Hagia Sophia
I like your movies, George Clooney
But I don't think I'll ever see ya

If I die in a hospital
Please courage at the end
The silence is eternal
Please silence be my friend

Dread annihilation
Wakes me in the night
I stop and think
Fright. Fright. Fright!

Free, free Palestine
Campuses break free
San Francisco Zen
In Dublin meant to be

                   Si.

The religions are not true
We die and disappear
But I still hear her voice
Whisper in my ear

California Coast
Moroccan mint tea
2037
Please protect my 3

             xie xie ni

I'll leave behind these poems
Will anybody read them?
Such sadness inside me
Sadness and regret

Falafel wrap for dinner
Middle Eastern music
3 prayers for Gaza
Please do not forget

               Not yet.

Tired. Exoplanets.
Got my shot today
Bipolar roller
My sons: callooh! callay!

Students getting arrested
Administrators call police
Maybe South Korea
Maybe Ancient Greece

Vegetarian tacos
Basketball at night
I rest, yes I rest
Sor Juana's mystic flight

          Gatsby's green light

America began in genocide
Slave labor all around
Everybody knows
I am the newsboy of this town

It's kind of a ******* country
Racist haters with their guns
I fly to Taiwan
Eat at Taipei 101

Vegetarian tacos
I reread Moby ****
Death comes for the Archbishop
Make it quick! Make it quick!

Genocide in Gaza
Israel invades
Hath the rain a father?
Who has the ace of spades?

Books, music, movies
But I am mostly quiet
I like the college protests
Police dressed for a riot

America is corrupt
Trumpfucks on the rise
There's no real hope
But the hummingbird still flies

                        Flies.
