Three young Israelis kidnapped and perhaps lost
We Jews cry out
Even our enemies side with us
Bring our boys back
A song weeps those words
Earth rears her head
And falls to her knees
Stopping her perpetual spin
Taking a moment
Remembering her multitudes
Gone in the name of beliefs
Principles
Opinions
Vanished in the struggle for tribal power
For political domination
Who shall rule
Who shall divvy out the oil
Who shall make war to fill the coffers of the greedy
As young soldiers go to their patriotic deaths
I want to forget our preoccupation with terror
But somehow I cannot
