You can say you are the
light and we the darknes
You can build your wall
taller than our olive trees
You can cast your satanic
silhouettes dawn to dusk
You can shadow over
our struggling seedlings.
Yet, fungi, lichen and moss
for the Hamas headbands
were flourishing in the Ubac
of our enforced depravation
while the circadian rhythm
of resistance survived all
your attempts to dominate
eradicate and control.
