a lonely traveller
And then
And then?
Enduring the passing of time and pain
Injustices and silence
In the prison of Gaza, the humiliation…
Suffering and so much resignation
And then?
Our media reactions and yet still this silence Eastern and Western
of our governments, from both the East and the West
Is there justification on Israel’s side?
Which power, which force enchains you and crushes you?
And then?
My mind embroiled by ugly images
Of suffocated people, standing up and humiliated
Where are these so called friends who promote a selective justice
Using suffering to hide suffering?
And then?
Who say everything about Darfour to veil the lies about Palestine
Battling the campaign with undignified and strategic distraction
In my heart, anger, revolt and dread.
True,it is true, it is "the minimum of faith"!
And then?
We will not remain silent!..
