Lighting a Candle

Lighting a Candle

 

Where
were you

on September 11
2023?

Where
were you

on October 7
2023?

A more
earth shattering
question:

Where
are you now

on December 7
2023,

the first day
of Hanukkah,

while rabid generals
are “mowing
the grass” in Gaza?

 

 

Oh, My God!
                            After Seeing Netanyahu’s Golden Statue in Tel Aviv Plaza

     Nowhere near
a human
animal,

high above
kings,

you must be
a God,

     since only
Gods
     commit
mass murder
     with holy impunity.

     So, what else but wait
with others for your fall
on one knee in protest,

     rising
only to throw
stones,

     aware
twisted
body counts  

     placed at your feet
          reveal
     your calculus,

          reveal
          you only move
for yourself & your kind,

     holding your righteous
little gold penis
in your divine right hand.


 

 

Hostis Humani Generis

     As he heard Israel’s
genocidal war on Gaza
called out,

his lip-bit
disturbed face
     became grim—

 the words
 splinters
 beneath Jewish nails.

To get passed
the horrors
     of October 7th

to speak of
a U.S. polished enemy
of mankind

requires
     revolutionary conversions.

 

Peace,
Andrés
