To See and Not be Able to Do
Every time I encounter the News,
Yes the News
Will it ever end,
Seeing the death of my Palestinian friends,
Will it ever end,
Seeing the terrorists bomb and kill with no repercussions,
No consequences, just governmental corruption,
Listen now, youngest of us.
On the edge of ruin, I am wiser
And perhaps, you shall be as well.
A crimson silk carpet runs beneath
The house, unmoving and unwavering.
Occupiers hold on with iron grips
Thoughtless deeds, humanity is on freeze
Women, children cry out of soundless lips
Free Palestine!
by Ima Ríos
Metalic rain
erase the smell of life.
Alien fire
Bombs
Bullets
Death.
Put down your weapons
Call off your wars,
Stop all the sorrow
There has to be more.
Enough is enough,
I’m calling it quits
Everything’s wrong,
It shouldn’t be like this.
Soldiers are fighting,
