My mum and my old church, of which she's still a part,
have sober takes on Palestine, acknowledging
how death is death, how we must pray
for righteousness, not triumph,
while my present priest, he sometimes rails against
"Rothschild" in his sermons---
"We were baptised here
and we will die here" read a headline
on a rocket striking the ancient church
of St. Porphyrios in Gaza
while an American friend of mine is singled out
for her big nose, her knowledge of High German---
Winter lights.
