Cleanliness Poem by Jan Oskar Hansen

Cleanliness

Rating: ★5.0


Our Guilt
Palestine is a state betrayed
By the west, and god
The settlers when not building houses
On Palestine land,
And hunts Arabs like rabbits.
We, who created this catastrophe,
Let it pass as the Middle East
Problem
Wash our hands and stop buying
Oranges
