"Every first issue
of the womb is Mine,
from all your livestock
that drop a male as firstling,
whether cattle or sheep.
But the firstling
of an *** you shall redeem
with a sheep;
if you do not redeem it,
you must break its neck."

Adored words, taken holy
out of any context, save time.

Today, we have wars, where once,
certain ones of us were told peace
is impossible, madness lies below,

all we were required to know,

numbers in sequence,
letters on blocks, stiches on
***** that roll, flatten
into wheels,
squared away, to
cubes that don't, but
do crystalize polygenic
univalent angulate orthogonic
planes, tied at the edges framing empty
solids, using science used
for stomachs,
and gourds,
hollowed solidities
growling distracting rattlings
Hunger apathy perhaps, I grieve in Gaza, from a distance, meandering and making peace with sowing seed of my own kind of same ol' same' ol' another day in paradice.
Amidst the sound of bombardment explosions and gunfire.
Screams and cries are heard.
Also heard the sound of hungry stomachs.
Stomachs tied with stones to suppress hunger with nothing to eat.
Besides drinking water mixed with salt.
Hoping to silence the stomachs that are making increasingly loud noises.
That is the sound of slow painful death.
From thin and malnourished bodies.

Deathly Silence
from the sky
the trumpets
do not cry

while all around the world
children
are torn apart by bombs unfurled

And the parents
must dig
the graves

if the remains
from the rubble
they manage to save;

While their weeping
vanishes in the void,
many still believe war
it's just a toy.
In Gaza’s hush, the night ignites,
With fire that falls from foreign heights.
No lullabies, no peaceful skies
Just sirens' wail and mothers’ cries.

The olive trees, once full of grace,
Now bleed in every sacred place.
A child clutches a broken toy,
Still searching for a taste of joy.

Walls close in where hope once grew,
Beneath the dust, the sky turns blue
But no one looks, or dares to see
The lives erased so brutally.

The sea is near, but not for play,
It mirrors smoke by light of day.
And prayers rise up through shattered glass,
For peace to come, for war to pass.

O world that watches, cold and still,
Why must the blood of dreams be spilled?
How loud must grief begin to scream
Before you fight for more than dreams?

In Gaza’s heart, they still resist
Each breath they draw is a quiet fist.
And even when the nights are long,
They sing the truth in trembling song:

“We are not rubble, we are the roots,
We are the echoes in the flutes.
We are the dawn you’ll one day see
A people’s pain, a people free.
This poem is the testimony of time witnessing the criminal silence of the world towards the Genocide in Gaza. We all heard the story of the Wolf and the Lamb in our childhood, today we are witnessing it with our own eyes.

How lucky am I
That my skies explode with pride
Hiding genocide
Free gaza! I am extremely upset with "my" country.

Cowards
fire into the crowd,
now bullet casings
are daily bread.

Amidst the long chaos and unbearable suffering.
People and children in Gaza often entertain themselves by doing a trend on Tiktok.
They do what is called the Turmeric Trend.
A glass of water is placed on top of a smartphone flash light that is on.
Then yellow turmeric powder is sprinkled into the water.
When the powder dissolves it looks like a surreal show.
Accompanied by the tinkling of gloomy music.
That is the weird entertainment for the exhausted souls in Gaza.

Mahmoud Darwis once said we love life whenever we can.
So it is no wonder if the people of Gaza always have the spirit to live.
Look at a group of young people who are fans of skateboard and rollerblade in Gaza.
In the midst of the long chaos they still have the spirit to play.
The wheels of their skateboards and rollerblades always roll every day. Crossing the messy streets of Gaza.
Speeding between the rubble of collapsed buildings.
Jumping with various amazing tricks.
For them nothing can stop the wheels of their skateboards and rollerblades.
The wheels will continue to roll as life goes on.
That is an example of how the people of Gaza love life.

Many LGBTQ people are disgusting.
They are a group of people who are proud of their crazy ****** deviations.
But I know that not all LGBTQ people are like that.
I often see LGBTQ people who are full of humanity.
Every time there is a solidarity action to support Palestine they always show their support.
They are also active in doing anything on social media to help the suffering people in Gaza.
So there is no reason for me to hate them.
On the contrary I admire them.
I don't see them as deviants.
I only see them as human beings.

The Madleen ship failed to reach Gaza.
The Global March action stopped in Egypt.
While people and children in Gaza are still starving.
The massacre is getting worse without stopping.
They are too tired , too weak and too desperate.
Waiting for a slow painful death.
If there is no miracle Gaza will not be able to survive anymore.
This is the final point that determines the fate of Gaza.
