It’s true…It’s not that simpleBut it’s not hard.

It’s not tough.

All I’m doing is

Lending my voice

To those who are

Being silenced.

I’m not underThe bombs

The rubble

The corpses

Fire and Rain.

I’m not dyingHungry

Fearful

Robbed of

Every inch of

My skin and my kin.

I’m not cagedI’m not sick

I’m not left

Half agonizing

Half rotting

I’m not sad.

I’m wholeheartedly horrifiedBy the intent

Behind the monstrosity

Happening in

Palestine, Sudan,

Yemen, Congo and

So many other places…

And I recognizeThe common factor behind this..

American Capitalist Imperialism.

Biden said that providing Israel

With weapons was a good investment

For the US for many years to come.

How much terrorWill be birthed

Through this terror?

Orphans, widows, widowers

Childless parents and grandparents,

Sisters, brothers, left alone.

Humans like you, like myself.

Dear WEST, Dear America,If you want the world to love you,

Maybe, just maybe…

Stop killing innocent children,

Stop funding and excusing

Genocide.

Sincerely,

FZB
