I am afraid as I write this.
Everyone knows what they’re
capable of. It’s on TV and
online all the time. Murder
is just another meal to them,
so I write with shaking hand,
knowing full well their history
and terrible suffering and the
outrage such a question will
only incite but, despite it all
I want to know: if they could,
would the Israelis, finally,
genocide the Palestinians,
would they build the camps
and march them in a cold mist
to the waiting boxcars? It seems
beyond the pale but honestly,
the requisite hatred is
the tattered flag they fly high,
the cultural biases the
precious passed down parent
to child and the religious bona
fides the stuff of wailing,
warring souls. So, if they
could; would they toss more
wood on the bright bonfires already
lighting up the night skies?
