By my pen (Joy BMP) #poetry #poets #writingcommunity @palestine @aral

In every conference, they speak of reconstruction the rebuilding of this sorrowful land.

They discuss collecting the rubble and ashes, recycling them in one of the nations.

Excuse my ignorance, but who will host rubble mixed with blood and the bones of decomposing corpses?

The corpses of innocent people who were killed and denied rescue?

Pardon me again, but the same countries now willing to host debris filled with the remains of children and women

are they not the very ones who refused to host them while they were alive?

Will these countries be able to bear what will haunt their sleepless nights and torment their dead conscience?

Honestly, excuse my ignorance, my questions, and nothing more.

But do not excuse my hunger and fear beneath the bombs.

And do not excuse my slow death.
