You want to see
The empty face
Of God?
Come to Gaza
You want to see
The true Ruler
Of the world?
Come to Gaza
You want to see
The filthy lie
Of Freedom
Come to Gaza
You want to see
The true color
Of the human heart?
Come to Gaza
You want to see
What Dragon breathes
The world into Being?
Come to Gaza
You want to see
Your future
Your truth
Your pain
Your easy betrayals
Come to Gaza
On second thought though
Don’t come
For I am coming to you
With fire, a rose, and the storm.
