Ghosts Dancing

Ghosts dancing across

Time,

Whispered words

Singing

In the silent night,

“Give my broken body

To rest,

Take me home

To the hills of

Heather.”

A Pirate’s Life

Open waters,

The gentle slap of the sea,

A Pirate’s life for me.

A ship that creaks,

A treasure to seek,

A Pirate’s life for me.

No rules, no laws,

No outdated policies,

A Pirate’s life for me.

An equal share,

Between me and my mates,

A Pirate’s life for me.

The wind in my hair,

My face salt spray’d,

A Pirate’s life for me.

Aye, an’ savvy too,

Bring me that horizon,

A Pirate’s life for me.

Free Free Palestine

The blue rivers and sea

At the start of humanity

Now run red with Palestinian blood.

Free free Palestine

From the River to the sea

Palestine will be free

Children bombed

Teens burned alive

Pregnant women shot

Free free Palestine

From the River to the sea

Palestine will be free

Genocide used as an excuse

To commit genocide

But it’s not genocide

Free free Palestine

From the River to the sea

Palestine will be free

Freedom fighters labeled as terrorists

It’s the war on terror

Don’t you see?

Free free Palestine

From the River to the sea

Palestine will be free

Die quietly under the genocide machine

Only the rich and the white

Get to be free

Free free Palestine

From the River to the sea

Palestine will be free.
