Painting walls and doors blue
will not make it “Jewish”
Waving angry flags up and down
will not make it “Jewish”
Scribbling around fantasies and lies
will not make it “Jewish”
Destroying evidence of deep rooted history
will not make it “Jewish”
Replacing Arabic with Hebrew names
will not make it “Jewish”
Uprooting trees and stealing livelihoods
will not make it “Jewish”
Desecrating monasteries where peace is the prayer
will not make it “Jewish”
Writing Hebrew words on stolen olive oil
will not make it “Jewish”
Burning fruit trees to tighten the squeeze
will not make it “Jewish”
Shredding Holy books to pieces, with a grin
will not make it “Jewish”
Erasing a country from the world map
will not make it “Jewish”
Moving in, at gun point to some family home
will not make it “Jewish”
Marketing our Hummus as “Israeli Sabra”
will not make it “Jewish”
Disfiguring kuffiah with six-pointed stars
will not make it “Jewish”
Vandalizing the world with blue paint in every corner
will not make it “Jewish”
Claiming God is a real-estate agent favouring his “chosen”
will not make it “Jewish”
Invading fully armed, a mosque or a church
will not make it “Jewish”
Destroying landscapes, for eyesore construction
will not make it “Jewish”
Bombing hills and mountains while hiding the crime
will not make it “Jewish”
Defiant Land
Faithful Land
Holy Land
Her stones yearn to be caressed
Only by those hands
which tenderly carved
NOTHING… NOTHING of what they do will ever make it “Jewish”
Defiant Land
Faithful Land
Holy Land
Her heart beats only
for those gentle eyes
which watered her with tears
she passionately adores
NOTHING… NOTHING of what they do will ever make it “Jewish”
