ABOUT GAZA
I wanted to
talk to you
about Gaza
because there
is so much confusion
about where you stand
you fill my head
with all these poems
so much
poetry
no use to anybody
poems that all those
who proclaim themselves
your most beloved
would say, do not
bear analysis, are
not worth the reading
are the product
of your antithesis
are openly blaspheming
and they are right
of course they are right
no point in my
attacking them, sanitizing them
throwing the proverbial
poetic kitchen sink
at them
in the name of the children
their shells
and bombs
are maiming, killing
