Family destroyer
Home bulldozer
Wall builder
Oppressor.
A mean human rights violator . . .

Happy his lot could've been
Chasing ball
Carefree under the open sky
Dreaming in colors

Look from right to left
And left to right
Pause...

See how I pose
In the rubble molded.
See and believe
What Israel writes . . .

If
I were a bird
I'd build my nest
In some corner
Out of sight.
If I were a bird
I'd perch
On the branch
