See and believe What Israel Writes

Look me up in this picture blotted
There I am in wires knotted
Look from right to left
And left to right


Pause...

Feel these limbs
See how I pose
In the rubble molded.


See and believe
What Israel writes on these walls felled.
I am her ink flowing in tears chocked
Read my face gawk so tranquil in the dust raised.


See and believe what Israel writes
Hold these molten hands of the holy lands


Embrace my heat take shelter in my rays

See and believe what Israel writes.

Very sad indeed! Well, Mr ben-yehu you are so very right and so is the author of this masterpiece, Safi Abdi.

Sometimes I think that dignity is a stinky word at the UNITED NATIONS; that humanity is word that means MUNURE to them; that "law and order" means to defecate on human's face; that the United Nations is a cartel whose functions are segregation, starvation, WARization, separation and SLAVEzation; that the United Nations Security Council main function is to produce social UNrest, social insecurity, and INDUSTRIAL WARS... LOL. I was jesting. I don't think. I know it, and anyone will know the same after reading THE CHARTER OF THE UNITED NATIONS ORGANIZATION. SINCE THE SIGNING OF HUMAN RIGHTS, records show what the U.N. Security Council really does... Yes! That is TERRORIZING! INDUSTRIALIZING WARS AND GLOBALIZING SLAVERY AND STARVATION. DOES ANYONE KNOW WHO HAS THE KEY FOR PEACE? I TELL YOU NOW: THE FIVE PERMANENT MEMBERS OF THE UNITED NATIONS SECURITY COUNCIL. DOES ANYONE KNOW WHO THEY ARE?

I have read Your message and composition. I admire Your courage and brilliant intellect.

In admiration,

Andre Emmanuel Bendavi ben-YEHU

Safi so deep, full of feeling and your compassion just shines within your wordplay! Excellent work!

Reviewed by Erin Kelly-Moen 5/18/2004
Great composition, Safi, the flow guides the readers mind to...to me, what feels like oblivion of sorts. The end phrasing brings a flash of a mushroom cloud before my mind's eye, among other images.
Reviewed by George MacLean Akurunwa 5/18/2004
I love your deep poetic expressions. You are obviously gifted. These images of destruction are the works of religion. I follow Christ, and not religion. The difference between the two are worlds apart.

Poor childeren who need to live with the reality of war each and every day, as bombs continue to fall on their homes whilst they try to sleep in their beds.
Reviewed by Ted Sheridan (Reader) 5/18/2004
Another bomb factory blown up! Thank you for pointing this out to me. I needed some good news.
