This anti-Semitic
Word-war
Taunts and teases
toe-to-toe
until the first missile
finds its target.
We have become the
sounding slats of
unreasoned logic,
scrambled like a well
turned omelet.
Blinded by custom’s grip,
warriors goose-step
through generations of
religious relics –
holdovers
sown
from Abraham’s seed,
Their
chains of thought
shackled and bolted down,
the key thrown away.
The world waits, as
each side hikes down the
road to the
cadence of ancient
ancestral pipers.
They claim their superior
rights while their children
carry swords
and die.
