Poetry4Palestine - In Cause of Justice

By Hiyam Noir

Landscape of Tragedy
a Language of Sad Rhymes

no definition
no persona
no geographic

naked faces
numbed in
bottomless
melancholy

all victimized
all suffered hard times
all singing the blues
a language of sad rhymes

self expectable

displacing it articulate
in different expressions

in a certain way
some are tranquil
some are in rage

different experience
landscape inherited
shared tragedy

appeared long
as decorative objects
targeted and removed
buried to be forgotten

all that publicity
all that audience
all that tragedy

expended it self

you know how to define
you know the people
you know the landscape
you know what it's all about
you know it's a crime
you know it is a genocide

our spirit unbreakable
our retaliation extensive
justice defined
