Red
The color of the keffiyeh
the color of blood
the color of  death
the name of the little  goat
soon to be dead
a rose is a rose
in a garden or cut
one is alive
the other not for long
a murdered friendship
time to cut my throat
and shut the hell up
People in Gaza are too tired of suffering.
It is too complicated to digest the suffering in the midst of endless chaos.
They no longer feel the need to post what they are experiencing.
Because they feel it is no longer useful.
They feel abandoned by the world.
A world that is silent seeing their suffering.
A world that is unable to understand and save them.
They have lost hope and feel helpless.
They no longer expect help from anyone.
This is psychological condition called Exulansis.
People in Gaza who have suffered Exulansis will not post anything anymore on their social media accounts.
You will no longer know whether they are still alive or dead.

When the Nazzi besieged Leningrad it became a terrifying hell.
Everyday Nazzi planes bombarded the city many times.
As time went on Leningrad was increasingly destroyed.
People and children were starving and malnourished.
Nazzi troops blocked the supply of food , fuel and medicine.
The fate of the people and children in Leningrad was truly terrible.
Many died slowly and painfully.

Now history is repeating itself again.
Gaza has become the new
Leningrad in the third millenium.
A much worse hell and too terrible to be repeated again.
This terrible history is truly sad to repeat itself.

After Eid the supply of flour in Gaza became increasingly scarce.
Everyday bakeries were filled with people queuing.
They jostled for hours just to buy a bag of bread.
Usually people who came in the morning got bread at noon.
There were also people who fought while queuing and then they were disappointed.
Because the bread had run out in the evening.
But now the situation is getting worse.
There are no more bakeries open because the supply of flour has run out.
Gaza is in a crisis of flour and all kinds of food.
People are starving again amidst endless chaos.

Gaza is now completely destroyed not because of Godzilla or King Kong.
The destruction of Gaza is the result of Israeli madness and brutality.
For more than a year Israel has been bombarding Gaza non stop.
Jet planes , warships , artilleries , tanks , helicopters , bomb drones.
All of them non stop bombarding Gaza every day.
So blame Israel for the destruction of Gaza.
Never blame Godzilla or King Kong.

The girls in Gaza love chocolate wafers or chocolate bars.
They also love cappuccino drinks with choco granules.
All of these have become luxury items that they cannot afford.
They can no longer enjoy because they have no money.
All they can do is upload old photos of themselves eating chocolate or drinking cappuccino.
All of this gives a little spirit to themselves who are weak and tired of surviving in the midst of the chaos.
They want to stay alive until the chaos ends.
So they can smile again in the midst of serenity.
While enjoying their favorite chocolate and cappuccino.
That's the life they love.
That's the life they fight for.

To all pro Palestine people.
Don't say 'sorry'.
Don't say 'failed'.
People in Gaza will feel frustrated with those words.
Move as best you can.
Fight as hard as you can.
That's what they expect from you.
Whatever action you take will have an impact even if it is slow.
Show your fighting spirit consistency to support Palestine in many ways.

When it comes time to celebrate Eid.
Children in Gaza do not celebrate with fireworks but with jet bombardments.
Children in Gaza do not wear new clothes but they wear shrouds stained with blood.
No laughter of joy , only silence in the morgue.
