Headlines

Some of today’s,

Palestinian headlines,

natural light,

sun and sky,

perpetual smoke,

rising wafts,

pounce one another,

eager battle,

unforgettable acts,

recorded real blood,

you were there,

for every act,

you just chose,

actions next,

remember that !

when last breath calls,

escapes your being,

remember us !

• Al Jazeera’s correspondent on the ground reports intense Israeli attacks on Khan Younis in southern Gaza with tents for displaced people engulfed in flames after missile strikes that also targeted residential buildings.

• Residents and displaced Palestinians have been ordered by the Israeli military to immediately evacuate the Beit Hanoon and Beit Lahiya areas of northern Gaza, ahead of an expected “large scale” army operation.

• The Palestinian Prisoner’s Society has called on the UN to launch an international investigation into the “systematic torture of Palestinian detainees” amid reports of serious abuses in Israeli prisons, including rape.

• The World Health Organization (WHO) says Israel’s continuing assault on Gaza is presenting multiple hurdles to its campaign to prevent a devastating outbreak of polio in the Palestinian territory.

Recall our humanity, tick tick, tock !

bombs go boom, sand grains blood !

carousel built, and exit-less,

die in circle, round and round,

pleasured sin, the same old tale,

cracks new dawn, it kills new flesh

Pretend to sleep, and wrestle rest,

morning anchor, darkness drowns,

tomorrow’s cast, will fetch the same,

dissolve black air, it mixes night,

mostly death, that work of art

Final lullaby, words spoke late,

either last night, or early wake,

regardless which, here we go..

hush little baby, don’t you cry,

mama’s unfortunately, likely, dead,

can’t seem to write, this world to love,

care our human life, or heart,

profit ends still, trending strong,

and so little baby, hush now sleep,

may your next life, be more kind,

blossom chance, you’ll get to live,

a full safe life, (and mama too)

please just try, and sleep for now,

that same struggle, I fight each night,

and so little baby, hush now sleep

Vowel vessels, sail in print,

carry weight, my tears in verse,

sea blood foams, it keep us bay,

dark around, for far too long,

harbor walls, and swim dark clouds,

hush little baby, don’t you dare,

cry out loud, they might hear you,

and then for sure, they’ll kill you next..
