War Torn

Returning home,

no more to roam,

upon the wings of eagles,

Defending the nation,

against an abomination,

plain to see to all eyes.

The response will be swift;

moreover, there is no longer a rift,

amongst those who are now unified.

We stand as one against the enemy,

who descended to a level of inhumanity,

even lower than the animals.

Hamas will be rooted out of their holes,

where they hide in darkness, taking their toll

upon innocent men, women and children.

The culture of death that permeates

a society that is raised on hate,

must be dismantled forever.

For no moral equivalency can be drawn,

between the rotten fruits of its spawn,

and Israel’s right to self-defense.

I am Jewish. I write divrei Torah, poetry, and brief essays on modern culture. I am interested in exploring Judaism beyond a surface level of belief and practice; I try to emphasize kavanah in prayer, mitzvoth, and study.
