I want to write a poem about Palestine
but I have no words.
The nouns are drenched in blood.
The verbs are obscene
and the adjectives unspeakable.
The sentences have no end
and there is no punctuation.
I am having trouble pronouncing 
my own name.

To hide under schools under hospitals, to use people as human shields. I only see one side doing that that&#8217;s not to say that the Jewish people are not participating in the mass killing as well.. The fact that Palestine has American citizens hostage for over a year I have no tolerance for that. If you&#8217;re an American Palestine, you have a right to protest but if you came into our country illegally and you&#8217;re protesting, you need to leave I mean go back home. It&#8217;s not OK to come to our country and burn the American flag. If I went to Palestine and did that they would kill me. United States is the only place you can come to and actually become a citizen I could live in China but I will never be a citizen. I can go to Russia live in Russia and I will never be Russian. There has to be a process to citizenship completed first.
Real life is not so cut and dry my my brother passed away at the age of 25. He was married to a Palestinian woman. They&#8217;re very particular she would say she&#8217;s from Persia. I have another family member who is married to a Muslim. All of her children are college graduates, the children of their own. Oh my white mother. They don&#8217;t try to burn the American flag. then I have other family members that are Jewish poolside to get along fine. The divide is so much propaganda the hatred to want to kill oh race of people, but it gets much deeper by. knowing the genesis of the conflict. As a Christian, this was foretold 2000 years ago down to the countries that will be involved in world war three and we&#8217;re at that point right now. And even with the flavor of the history I have within my family I wouldn&#8217;t touch this topic. No good can come of it evil besiege evil.

Felt that way for so many years. You've expressed it more beautifully and powerfully than I could imagine.
