A Word to the Wise is Deficient
By robert braunstein
Israeli Politics. A mess with Hamas
::::::::
It tears at my heart not to speak out for your part
But your stance is insane
And the blood is profane
Amidst phosphorous rain
Your point gets undone
When it's made with the gun
And the young children run
Their pain blocks out the sun.
You cannot blockade
The truth that is made.
The world won't come to your aid;
You cannot persuade.;
You can't withhold water
You must do what you oughta
With the tanks on the border.
You can't withhold the drugs
Like jackbooted thugs
Your memory won't justify
The people, the lie
The eye for an eye
Your piece of the pie
With my best regards,
Please call off the guards
It's time to talk peace
Before the time ends.
Better bend then to break
When your arguments fake.
You can't hold with your tanks
A whole people's will
How much can you kill?
I'm begging you brothers
For the sake of the mothers
Don't be like the others.
Don't emulate the mean,
The vicious obscene
Imperial dogs in the West.
It's no way to be
You won't win in the end.
America's nobody's friend
Even God won't defend
What's around the next bend.
