Heaven just sounds
like another kind of hell
Truth is the most
dangerous tale to tell
With the Torah
in one hand
and 2-ton bombs
in the other they prey
on children and their families
Chased from home
to rescue facility
No such thing as a safe place
Gas explorations
off the coast of Gaza
All hail to money
and to wealth be the power
Hallelujah and Amen
in His image
A reflection of creator
seen in the creation
It used to scare me to think
What if there is no god?
Now it scares me to think
What if there is?
