The Robbery

The Robbery
by Tariq Elhadary

Gaza showed all our wickedness
Scorned all our baseness!
Stark naked we stood
Watching where we should
Have rushed to save the embryo
Allow it to flourish till it could
With fierce revenge blow
The flames of rooted fire!
Tons of blood damn liar
Of murdered dreams and desire!
The jury bribed the choir
To outcry the black satire
Of defending the robbery!
