These poems are heart-wrenching and infuriating in their beauty, Diane.

That longing! How it must exist in so many many hearts and hopeful spirits. Evokes the essence from revolutionary poetry

As long as the depraved Western and spineless Arab leadership stay in power, there will be no safe place for the Palestinians!

"Make me a key to this safe place,

a fine house with many bright rooms,

and a garden where olive and orange trees

burst into fragrant, sweet bloom."

Wouldn't this be a lovely safe home for everyone? What's keeping us from making this a reality? SIGH.
