Pre-Dawn Bombings Tanka Poem by Chen-ou Liu

Pre-Dawn Bombings Tanka

written in response to The Canadian Press, March 18: Israel's surprise bombardment plunged Palestinians back into 'hell'

pre-dawn bombings
light the sky with orange flares
shatter the stillness
set fire to a sprawling tent camp...
sounds of Death in a child's eyes
