MAHMOUD DARWISH ~

 Think of Others

As you prepare your breakfast, think of others

    (do not forget the pigeon's food).

As you wage your wars, think of others

    (do not forget those who seek peace).

As you pay your water bill, think of others

    (those who are nursed by clouds).

As you return home, to your home, think of others

    (do not forget the people of the camps).

As you sleep and count the stars, think of others

    (those who have nowhere to sleep).

As you express yourself in metaphor, think of others

    (those who have lost the right to speak).

As you think of others far away, think of yourself

    (say: If only I were a candle in the dark).

REFAAT  ALAREER

If I Must Die

If I must die,
you must live
to tell my story
to sell my things
to buy a piece of cloth
and some strings,
(make it white with a long tail)
so that a child, somewhere in Gaza
while looking heaven in the eye
awaiting his dad who left in a blaze —
and bid no one farewell
not even to his flesh
not even to himself —
sees the kite, my kite you made, flying up above,
and thinks for a moment an angel is there
bringing back love.
If I must die
let it bring hope,
let it be a story.

AHARON SHABTAI ~

 

Tikkun

The horror

the calamity

the disgrace,

the rubble of folly

and religion's stupidities,

the dimness of vision

and violence of despair

won't be repaired by an officer,

a bomb or a plane,

and not by still more blood.

Only wisdom of the heart could mend it

only the surgeon, the doctor,

the good teacher, the teachers

the medic — an Arab, a Jew —

only the quiet traveler

riding a bicycle,

someone carrying a sandwich

and walking along a street,

someone opening their eyes,

someone who speaks with compassion,

someone listening

someone learning and wise

someone waiting and thinking

someone guiding someone

down a path of kindness, affection,

the painter, the poet,

disciples of peace —

only the gardeners of peace.
