Right or Wrong
Right or Wrong
This poem is about right and wrong,
or some melancholy and lamenatable song.
It is about life and death
engineered by power and stealth.
The chosen people and their promised land
conceals a nefarious and deceitful hand.
They have dispossessed a nation
by creating a deluded notion.
They have taken to themselves a property
by exerting their own authority.
They are supported by those who garner wealth
from playing a game of deceit and stealth.
The most powerful nation pays their bills
and this then becomes the Palestinian ills.
Every day intimidation is used
in order to see the indigenous people abused.
This conflict did not begin in recent times
but decades ago amongst the olives and limes.
There is right and wrong in this land
only the oppressed and agressors hand.
The agressor has a huge arsenal of weapons
the oppressed suffers only endless transgressions

What happened to the Kingdom of Judaea? This stuff has been going on, with these peoples at each other's throats, since biblical times.
