Shofar Poem by Nassy Fesharaki

Shofar



Shofar

Shofar, this ritual object of the Jews
Most iconic, most ancient
Is now cleaned; as hearts should.

But

I wonder: “does any insider, outsider
Read the true message? ”

Or

It is just a toy for a game
New Year.
Elul until the end of Rosh HaShanah.

Sure

It must; in fact
Awaken and inspire:
“Be human, repent.”

Yes

Ram's horn has
Fascinating Shofar’s Facts

Now; Mainly? ? ?
