The Oppressed Time is churning us in a mass of confusion But something is forever the need to side with the downtrodden. Two of my uncles, ordinary working class lad, Spent time in jail and tortured because they helped the Jews because they were in need. Israel today doesn't want or any use for men without education Help was not political it was just human. When I see the endless cruelty committed by Israel, I take side With the Palestine people and try if not by heroic deeds but by words To help the oppressed people, not for a political agenda But a human one.
