My Freestyle

                                Here 
                              flow my 
                       drops of  ink...free
                    No chains to restrict, no
                 barriers, no real  boundaries,
                    unlike my homeland, my
                        occupied country
                               Palestine
 
                                    Here
                           fly my words
                        free with birds or 
                     even  fall like the leaves
                 off an autumn tree .........free
                     unlike the martyrs in my                           
                       homeland,in my loving
                              Palestine
                              
                                   Here
                                  I'd sip in
                              my ink to live
                          forever free in my
                    homeland, my occupied 
                        loving country in 
                             Palestine

Hello, Rula,
A strong passionate poem in a beautiful, soft visual form. Your words flow freely just like the drops of ink.

These opinions they aren’t very popular in my country. I think this is really strong work. It’s our job as artists and writers to put these issues under the microscope. This violence and forceful diaspora of the Palestinian people in the name of the state of Israel is terrible. It’s my belief both groups deserve to enjoy their motherland. The United State of Palestine and Israel perhaps. Maybe one day we can get it sorted out. Until then we hope and we write.

Amazing job on the formatting,
Tim

I'm thankful for reading my work and leaving such an honest comment. I don't think Palestinians will ever accept a one state for them and the Israelies. This is politics that never works with people. I just, like you, hope peace shall prevail sooner than later everywhere on this loving planet.
Thank you!

It breaks my heart too to see young men and women daily killed with cold blood only because they ask for justice and for defending their homes and families.
Your words mean a lot !
