Geography Unknown

 no one visits
their ancestors anymore.
Ghosts don't lie,
or do they?
Why must we choose
each time: Israeli or Palestinian
Jewish or Muslim?
Dead or Alive?
We are the half-and-halfs,
the quarterlies, the fly by nights
the eternal refugees.

Team Other

 You
who would be clean
I accuse You
of being
just like all the rest:

one of us
or not one
of us but a member
of Team Other
Friend/Enemy
in the end,
it's all the same:
Living, Dying
in your own
small bubble,
You  struggle;
you blame.
