Today as I read about the vandalizing and the bomb threats I feel, no realize that may be as important as ever.
I Am Jewish
I read about
An upgrade of the Jewish hate
To say nothing of the Jewish state:
Renewal and revival
That makes the Jew a rival
Present and eternal.
Pressed anew
To say “I am a Jew”
Interned in worlds of other faiths,
Each based
On love
But peopled by
A fractured many
Filled with fractured understanding,
Wear my Star of David,
Feel the coming holidays
With childhood love of coming days,
As always,
Living with those few-ish
Who know also that they’re Jewish,
Forced by some upbringing me,
Living, as I always have in lands where I, minority
Forget, neglect, omit so easily
My true identity:
I am become the Jew I’m born to be.
