I know not of owt more important or harder
than #sailing an #unarmada to #Gaza
for all of the mothers, children and fathers
for all the defiled #immaculata
kids with shrapnel wound #stigmata
them who barely dodge #bombardments
griefstruck cardiac infarction
heartshot by hidden marksmen
those who’ve lost all but war-torn garments
those whose tomb is bulldozed apartments
maimed and starved and bereaved and #martyrs
broken-hearted kindergartners
to #BreakTheSiege and create a harbour
make space for peace, for relief and #barter
help the traumatised to heal, inshallah
flotilla, convoy, air - yalla
#seeds to believe in a decent harvest
#saline treatment, cream for #psoriasis
give them a garland, build them a larder
arm and a shoulder to raise them harder
and that’s just for starters we must go farther
say “this is Palestine” like “ #ThisIsSparta! ”
- protected under a #PeoplesCharter
- till all vestiges of #empire are gone
- #RightToReturn to the home they part from
- no matter how long gone or far flung
- reunification; no more carve ups
- no more militarised escarpments
- #sovereign over itself; bar none
- Gaza to #Quds and #Ramallah are one
- #FromTheRiverToTheSea, amen
- if we will it, it will be - if we are among
- #LiberateTheJails; every prisoner pardoned
- #state #RaciaData reduced to #carbon
- if #Netanyahu wants to cause more carnage
- start with us because we’re #GazasPartners
- all #GenocideApologists face full disbarment from every assocation they’re part of
- every illegal settler shall scarper
- the whole of the world must #RebuildGaza
