the recently dead victims
had their bodies desecrated
a surgical team
harvested their organs
the organs
would give another chance at life
to an Israeli person
the dead didn't give permission
for the organs to be cut out
they were taken
by those who'd stolen their lands
to think this could happen
in a war zone
a fresh corpse
used for plunder

a kidney
an eye
a liver
all valuable *****
taken away
the dead Palestinians
men women and children
used in such a despicable way
