Like a Rothko painting,
an undifferentiated mass
of blood-soaked land.
Gaza / Israel, borderless.
Both of biblical wrath
gone to sacrilege.
Hear, O Abraham.
Blue gone to red
combusted to vapor,
seething with indifference
to human life.
God doesn't live here anymore.
Thank you for giving words to this.
ReplyDeleteMany thanks. When matters are beyond the grasp of rationality I take to poetry.
